Answer 1

1st thing 1st. KY jelly is actually a lubricant. and its water based.

if you are suffering from yeast infection. using that, will not help to ease the discomfort and it obviously doesnt help to cure it.

the only way to cure yeast infection, visit your doctor and get anti-fungal medication. be it pessary or anti-fungal drugs. for the time being, if you feel very uncomfortable, you can go to any pharmacy and get a anti-fungal. apply the affected area. it will help. do it continously and please do not stop as you feel better. advice to you is, please visit a doctor. its a very simple problem which can be cured very easily.

Answer 2

Maybe it would help ease the itching but that is not the purpose of KY and therefore is not the recommended use for it. OTC yeast infection treatments come with a cream to help with the symptoms. I'd stick to what is known to work. If a yeast infection doesn't go away after one OTC treatment then it is time to see a doctor.

Answer 4

Hello, I'm on the second week and seeing definite improvement on my yeast infection symptoms:

Note that: If the yeast infection doesn't respond to over the counter treatment, prescription medication will likely be necessary. Similarly, if the symptoms return after two months of being treated, you should contact the doctor for professional treatment rather than resorting again to home treatment.

If this is the first time you have experienced a yeast infection, you should schedule an appointment to have the condition treated by a doctor instead of resorting to home treatment

Answer 5

Never heard of that one, guess it may be seen as if it help as its cold and may stop the itch and burn, but I have never heard of that before, and it does seem as if the person using the KY is just treating the symptom not the cause!!
Try natural yogurt, it does work, but if you don't like the idea of that get some cream from the chemist or they do an oral tablet form now too.
But you should always get things checked by a doctor if you are unsure. If this person is sexually active too then I hope they are using protection, or even if this is thrush they can still pass it on and share it with their partner.

Answer 6

No ! better see a doctor before it too late. "KY" is a jelly light cream, act as a lubricant. To prevent pain caused by friction, not only on sex purposes, sometimes used in tubes insertion into any part of our body for medical purposes. For your info.

It helps to bear down using your muscles, like when you're having a bowel movement, and to pinch the base of the cup. As you pull it out, you can pinch and fold the middle of the cup to make it easier to remove.
