I heard that doucing with yogurt will get rid of a yeast infection.... does that work?

DO NOT DOUCHE! this gets rid of all those micro-organisms that keep your body normal.
Eating a yogurt a day will help. dont buy over the counter stuff, i spent 20 bucks on this one day cream/ovule treatment and it didnt work AT ALL.
Call your doc and get a perscription for diflucan. It worked wonders for me. Also, if you are on a strong anti-biotic, make sure to mention to the doctor next time you are put on one, that you are prone to yeast infection, he may prescribe diflucan along with the anti-biotic.
Good luck, I hope you feel better soon.

In theory it could work, but before you do it be aware of the risks. Douching with anything can push bacteria and other little nasties into you uterus and cause infection. Many yogurts you buy in a grocery store have flavourings and preservatives in them and allot of the time the acidophiles will be killed in the manufacturing process. If you are looking for a more natural way to get rid of it try this. Have a shallow bath with vinegar and salt added (no soaps, bubbles, perfumed products) taste the water (before you get in) and if you can taste it that's enough. Soak for a couple minutes then get out and use a blow dryer on a cool or low setting and dry your girl parts. Wear cotton breathable underwear. No polyester pants for a few days either. Try to wear skirts or lose fitting cotton pants. Do the bath thing for a couple days and you should be good. Another little note. There is new research saying eating yogurt or taking acidophiles pills won't help. You stomach acid and digestive system kill it before it can spread around your body. Good luck.

You need to eat yogurt with live cultures. Regular yogurt will not work. But I would see the doctor. Other infections can act just like a yeast infection.

NOT ANY SOONER THAN EATING IT WILL! A woman who showers often and keeps herself clean doesn't NEED to use ANYTHING in a douche except for warm clean water while bathing. For your infection, I agree with getting over-the-counter help to expedite healing and to HELP WITH THE ITCH. Also, while healing, don't wear panties to bed (yeast thrives on warm, dark moist areas, so let yourself get air during the night) and during the day, ONLY WEAR PANTIES WITH A COTTON CROTCH. For the future, you should always make sure to wear cotton-crotched panties and eating yogurt regularly (2-3 times monthly) will also help. If you start to continually get yeast infections, consult your gynecologist. I hope this helps!

No but eating yogurt will help .. It has cultures which naturally assist with body's cleasing process down there.
My advice is to get some over the counter monistat or like product at the store one dose and you could be cleared up in a day .. if left untreated proeprly this can become quite uncomfortable and lead to other problems.

yes, but not douching, just put some int your vagina with your finger. It relieves the itching, however, if the infection is to severe you will need medication. Eating yogurt regularly will also help to prevent yeast infections

Yes douching with yogurt will work, but you'll want to use PLAIN SUGARFREE yogurt with live acidophilus cultures. The yogurt will increase the amount of good bacteria in your vagina and stop the growth of yeast. After the infection clears, the balance of good and bad organisms will readjust itself, just practice good hygiene.
