How to Use Natural Herbs to Dissipate a Yeast Infection

Yeast infections are a fact of life for many women and an effective treatment must be used to prevent ongoing complications.
Many women prefer to use home remedies for yeast infections, particularly when penicillin is often resistant to bacteria these days.
Prescription and over the counter solutions are often expensive as well, so home remedies can be an attractive option.
Of course not all women will choose this option, nor is it suitable for all women.
However, for those women who would like to try the home remedy treatments, the following remedies have proven to be the best.
Yogurt The most effective home remedy is yogurt and it is also the most popular.
It should be natural, sugar free, unflavoured and contain lactobacillus acidophilus.
This will ensure the bacteria are not able to survive.
The yogurt accomplishes this by neutralising the vaginal environment and prevents the yeast from flourishing.
Internal and external application is recommended.
External application requires a liberal application to the vulval area a couple of times per day.
Internal application is best done with a (needle free) syringe for best results.
Again, twice per day.
This treatment should be carried out for around one week and at least for one day after symptoms have disappeared.
Garlic The second most effective method at home remedy for yeast infections is garlic.
Garlic has long been lauded as an effective natural for many things and this is most certainly true for yeast infections.
Understandably, some women will not want to try this method, but those who are willing to try can be assured of excellent results.
Garlic is a naturally occurring antibacterial substance, so it is a logical choice with which to treat yeast infections.
Use a fresh peeled clove and insert internally morning and night for a week.
You can also try wrapping the peeled clove in a little piece of cotton gauze if it makes you feel more comfortable about using this method.
Tea Tree Oil Two or three drops of pure Tea Tree Oil inside the affected area is the third most effective method of treatment.
Simply coat the top half of a tampon in KY Jelly, add a few drops to the tip of the tampon and then insert.
The reason for the KY Jelly is to prevent the oil from soaking into the tampon.
It is essential to ensure the oil reaches it's destination - it's not the tampon that has the yeast infection.
If the oil is not able to work it's magic in the correct location, this treatment will not be effective.
Again, use the remedy twice each day for a week for best results.
To achieve the greatest level of effectiveness, your treatment of choice should be repeated twice per day for around a week.
Trial and error will establish which is the most effective of the home remedies for yeast infections for individual women.
It should always be remembered that catching and treating the infection as soon as possible will always ensure the best results, as will using the remedy liberally for around one week - and don't forget to continue treatment for at least one day after the cessation of symptoms for the best results.
