Home Remedies | 6 Ways To Get Rid Of A Yeast Infection Fast At Home

Best way to get rid of yeast infection is by treating the root cause which is allowing candida to grow in your body. Yeast infections are things that happen to millions of people everyday. Although it happens to a lot of people, it is something that people do not like to talk about. If you are one of the many people who are too embarrassed to go to the store to pick up a yeast infection treatment, then you will be happy to note that there are a lot of home remedies for yeast infection that you can try. These home remedies for yeast infection can be done with stuff that you may have laying around the house already. This article will provide some very helpful tips to get rid of a yeast infection fast.

1. Avoid any chemicals which is causing irritation on your skin because they can worsen yeast infection. Avoid condoms which are lubricated with harmful perfumes and chemicals. Also try to use only medicated soaps which are free from any harmful chemicals.

2. You should use is cider vinegar. Smear some of this in the area that has the yeast infection. It is also a good idea to add some garlic to it as well, because that will stop the itching. If you want to, you can add some water to the vinegar to dilute it a bit.

3. Tight fitting pants and swimwear can hold in an awful lot of moisture and heat, this is a really bad situation for a yeast infection sufferer as it creates the ideal environment for yeast to thrive in. The same though can go for underwear as its directly blocking and suffocating the genitals by preventing thorough air flow. So if at all possible avoid even wearing underwear for the entire duration of your yeast infection.

4. In my opinion, this is one of the world's most potent, secret remedies for any illness! I firmly believe that if we all drank the amount of water our bodies need, we would see a great reduction in all types of sicknesses. Most doctors say that you should drink at least eight 8-oz. glasses of water daily, but many people need even more than that. I have found that merely drinking enough water significantly reduces my likelihood for getting a yeast infection.

5. This is one of the best known home remedies for yeast infection. Some people even like to soak tampons in curds or yogurt and then place it in the infected area for at least an hour. The healthy bacteria from the yogurt is going to over power the bad yeast from the yeast infection. This should be done about three times daily.

6. Using a garlic clove, make sure it is peeled but make sure not to break it open as garlic juice can burn the inside of the vagina. Wrap the clove in a small amount of cheesecloth or muslin. Insert the clove into the vagina and leave it in over night while you sleep, attaching a piece of floss to the clove can make its removal from the vagina easier.
