Yeast Infection Help

[hyeager2011]

I always seem to get yeast infections. I know they say eat yogurt to help with them. What kind is best? regular greek? Is there a brand u reccomend? Thanks

Any yogurt with active cultures. Or just take a probiotic. Also look at your diet, do you eat a lot of sugar/carbs?

Yogurt has some probiotics, but NOT enough. Kefir, kombucha, or any other home cultured beverage/food item would be better. If you choose a probiotic, Garden of Life is the best I've found.

If you are getting them regularly then you have a yeast issue in general. Garden of Life also make a product called "Fungal Defence". You also might consider going on an anti-candida diet.

Love gol and mega foods brand as well. To help treat and soothe look into diluted grapefruit seed extract externally. I believe Grapefruit seed extract and coconut oil can also help internally with systemic yeast as well as the candida diet.

I know this is gonna sound gross, and it is, but get a tub of plain yogurt and use it for a vaginal suppository. It actually works, if you can get over the discomfort. You have to do it at night like a Monistat suppository though, for the same reasons. Also take baking soda baths as these will help even out your PH along with a low-candida diet.

I too have always been prone to them. I eat full-fat whole milk yogurt regularly and watch my sugar intake and that seems to keep them in check.

what the ladies above said.  I also use a hydrogen peroxide rinse (a few tbsps of peroxide to a cup of water) and rinse your lady parts.  Always works for me

use yogurt!

the one with no sugar, the plain one

if you get one with sugar its gonna feed your yeast infection.

works for me
