Causes of yeast infection

Yeast infections happen when the PH balance of the vagina gets thrown off. PH of the vagina changes when we take birth control pills, wear too tight clothing, get sick, have a period, and so many other things. Obviously it's pretty easy to get a yeast infection. Treatment is simple, and just like you would expect, all you have to do is restore the PH of the vagina to mildly acidic, basically you are re-acidifying it. Actually, too much candida causes yeast infection. Here is an interesting article on candida yeast infection.

Yeast Infection Treatment

Untreated yeast infection is dangerous for health. There are a number of yeast infection remedies and we will discuss a few.

One popular treatment method is to drink unsweetened cranberry juice. People usually do this to prevent infections, but if your infection is mild, this treatment may help you out. Cranberry juice naturally makes your urine more acidic and the vagina a less friendly place for bacteria to grow. This usually takes about a week to see results.

If this doesn't work, another easy yeast infection treatment is to use plain unpasteurized yogurt. You can use any yogurt brand, just be sure it has live cultures, usually it says so right on the label. There are two options for this remedy. You can either eat lots of yogurt or wait for the bacteria to work its way through your system, or you get the yogurt right to the problem. All you have to do is insert a small spoonful of yogurt into the vagina. Most people use an empty tampon inserter to make things neater and easier. You should feel some relief in about 2 days. Continue until your symptoms have cleared.

A less popular but very effective remedy is inserting garlic. Garlic is a known antibacterial agent and will clear things up very quickly. You will need to peel a garlic clove, wrap it in cheesecloth and insert it into the vagina. The garlic needs to be wrapped because if the juices come into contact with your skin it will burn, something more painful than the yeast infection. While this option is very effective, it is also very smelly and you should probably only do it at night. You will want to keep the clove in for at last 3 hours, and maximum 12 hours.

During my research, I found that vinegar, honey, apple cider vinegar ,hydrogen peroxide ,tea tree oil ,yogurt tampon are all used as yeast infection home remedy. Click the link to read acidophilus yeast iInfection treatment.
