If it is for vaginitis, then the other answers are better. If it is for some of the other types of yeast infections, you could use yogurt internally or externally.
You could also use an anti-fungal cream and/or powder. You can use lotrimin AF cream or any other similar anti-fungal product. You can order Zeasorb-AF powder through your drug store, if they don't carry it on the shelves.
This is also the same fungus that results in jock itch, athlete's foot, thrush (white tongue), ringworm and other skin rashes. It is the Candida Albicans fungus (yeast). If you have more than one of these, you may have a systemic yeast syndrome. I do, and I have been fighting it for 7+ months - and hopefully am coming close to conquering it.
For basic information on the systemic yeast syndrome, check out the link on the Welcome page of www.hufa.org.

Buy a yogurt that states (live and active culture). Some of them are flavored with real fruits. Or eat just a plain yogurt. They are always good for you.

Yogurt. Do you get them a lot?
Are you pregnant? That will cause yeast infections that don't clear up easily. HIV/AIDS will, too, though.
If you know the cause of them, it can help to get rid of them.

My friend who is a nurse gave me this remedy. A tampon dipped in plain yogart inserted for about 30 minutes. Sounds absolutely disgusting but it works!! You can also try eating more yogart.

Don't let your vagin@ get cold or it will rise from the yeast.
