Vaginal Yeast Infection Symptoms
*Itching
*Burning
*Dryness
*Swelling and redness
*White thick discharge is not a definite sign of a vaginal yeast infection.

Causes of Yeast Infection
*Antibiotics
*High sugar levels in urine
*High estrogen levels for example just before menstruation, during pregnancy or HRT therapy
*Smoking cigarettes or cannabis
*Clothing that traps moisture e.g. latex, waterproof incontinence underwear, pads or panty liners that trap moisture

Home Remedies for Thrush to Avoid
*Candida diet is not backed by scientific evidence
*Garlic is an antifungal treatment that burns vaginal tissues
*Tea tree oil lacks scientific evidence and can cause irritation and allergy
*Yogurt can soothe but is not an antifungal

Treatments for Vaginal Yeast Infection
Medications for immediate symptom relief:
*Antihistamines such as Zyrtec can help reduce itching
*Topical steroid cream with 1% hydrocortisone on the vulva can also reduce swelling, redness and itching (speak with your doctor)

The most common yeast infections from Candida Albicans overgrowth.Two forms of antifungal medications treat thrush:
*Oral medication
*Topical creams or pessary

Both are equally effective for treating Candida albicans which causes approximately 90% of vaginal yeast infections.

Topical over the counter medications to treat vaginal yeast infection are drugs known as azoles such as clotrimazole. Topical creams act locally in the vagina and don't cause nausea that the oral medication can cause. Some women experience burning when applied.

Oral medication is Fluconazole (Diflucan) where 1 dose is usually used for mild to moderate yeast infection. Oral antifungals can interact with other medications and may have other effects on the body systems. Check with your doctor or pharmacist first before taking oral antifungal medications.

How long for Vaginal Yeast Treatment to Work?
Symptoms usually start to ease within 3 days but may take a week to fully resolve.

How to Manage Recurrent Yeast Infection
When antifungal medications are ineffective see your doctor. Symptoms may not be caused by vaginal yeast infection or the yeast may not be treated by regular antifungal medications.

In my 20s I suffered with this A LOT with Thrush. I tired Yoghurt which was just yucky but did cool things temporarily - but in addition to other over the counter treatments, a Pharmasist suggested mixing a few drops of Tea Tree Oil to a shallow bath and then sitting in it and drawing the water inside - WOW ! The relief was almost immediate and once I had that under control I started reviewing my diet and got it all under control. Since then no more Thrush! You dont need to suffer from this so please see a chemist/pharmasist/GP for advice and treatment xx

I've tried the garlic years ago, and I'll never forget the horrible burning.

[karenmatthew]

Very informative. Good refresher. As women we tend to forget these information, thanks again.

Great info Michelle. You speak about “delicate” topics so matter of factly and with ease. You have a talent for getting your knowledge across in a non-intimidating way. Thank you for this and your willingness to share with us.
Best from across the ocean.
ps: Your hair looks lovely down like this :)

[mariarodsky]

These creams and pills never work!!!! They don't solve the problem neither, the candida always come back.

[behuman]

Very informative and thank you for debunking those supposed home remedies. Since I use garlic in cooking all the time - getting crushed garlic on a finger cut is so painful, so can’t imagine inserting internally.

Girls, , i feel like i should share this ... I had yeast infection around 4-5 Months now, tho' i didn't consult any doctor i knew it was yeast infection, ,it was so itchy that i can work, or sleep properly, , i used remedies, topical creme and everything i watched and searched to get rid of it ... 😢 Until i had a checkup to my ob because i am pregnant, then i told her that i think i have candida, then she prescribed to me, , vaginal suppositories, for 3days use, , at first i was hesitant because i don't know how to put it, and don't know if i can do it right, so i did not yet use it. Until it got worst, i felt like there's ants crawling in my vagina, that's when i decided to use the suppositories, and thanks god, it was like magic ! First piece i put inside, 98% of itching was gone . I was so thankful that i decided to use it, , i had my 2nd now, , and still there's no more itching ... It supposed to kill the virus/bacteria that caused this infection. Hopefully when i finished the 3rd suppository it will not cone back again ... What i used MYCOHEAL 400 vaginal suppositories.

Coconut oil does wonders. Wash area and dry it and then apply cold pressed coconut oil, if you have turmeric you can add a pinch to the oil .

Epsom salt baths and triple antibiotic ointment. The triple antibiotic ointment that has the pain reliever in it is AWESOME and not for thrush alone, but for burns and cuts and fever blister relief also chapped lips and cheeks. I also used the ointment with pain reliever on my two sons for diaper rash relief.

Plain yoghurt is the best with 6 cups of water daily . Eat the yoghurt & applies the yoghurt to the pentiliner approximately for a week. Its helps a lot.

I can say garlic works and is NOT dangerous. (Might be for some people, maybe if they are alergic to garlic, but even I am a little bit alergic to alicine in garlic when eating, but I can eat a small amount and have no problem inserting into vagina.) What I think is rather dangerous is chemical pharmaceuticals. I am always for firstly trying NATURAL remedies. I have a good experience with garlic, inserting a peeled clove overnight inside and removing in the morning. Many women do, I read it online and tried and it really works. Best is to choose a night when we don´t go to socialise very much the next day, because the smell gets into the mouth somehow, there is a connection between vaina and mouth... It really works pretty quickly. You will experience candida detox symptoms, such as tiredness after. It is good. Drink enough water, eat healthily.

Love your video but was looking for home remedy! I just took Fluconazole and my head is killing me, I am so tired and nauseous it’s bad…..I am looking for home solutions like someone mentioned Epsom Salt baths! Thanks anyways!

[tobeamiss]

Hi Michelle :) I thought I would share my remedy to prevent yeast infections that come from taking antibiotics. Active live cultures work for me. Actually I would eat a cup of yogurt that had active live cultures, 3x a day as soon as I started my antibiotics. But now, I take probiotics 3x a day. I take this in capsule form. ...At least 25 billion at a time. And I do this until I finish my prescription. I used to get the most horrible yeast infections.

I once used garlic and it burned so baaaaddd that I was about to

[yordanos]

Coconut oil and a few drops of tea tree oil…you’re welcome 🫶🏾

Got Hydrocortison cream twice from my doctor.. for my face once and once vaginal cream, this was a big big mistake! it caused imbalance of my hormones, resulting in thyroid issue's, 10month's of examinations in hospitals, what a miserabel mess that was! All that hormonal ignorance of the mainstream medical world is abhorrent! Beginning with the birth controle pill, next for whatever issue you get smeared with Hydrocortisol or they get everybody on Hydrocortisol tablets against inflammation or as immunotherapie. Finally it took only 2 consults with a homeopath and within 2 month's i was cured. It would be wise for mainstream doctors to top messing around with( synthetic or any ) hormones! There's plenty good advice and or other remedies.

Try drinking a couple of spoonfuls of extra virgin olive oil every day. I started a week ago and it cleared my ringworm up. I’m hooked and will be using it in my food for the rest of my life.

❤thank you so much, Michelle! I appreciate your knowledge and time to help us! Very good explanation 😊
