Yoghurt for a Yeast Infection?

Is it true if you dip a tampon in Natural Non-flavoured live set yoghurt and leave it in over night, it will cure a yeast infection?

Answer #1

Go to the store and buy a small carton of plain yogurt. Make sure it is plain with no fruit, no added sugar and no flavoring in it of any type. Make sure that whatever type yogurt you buy has “active cultures” listed on its container. Eat 8 oz of yogurt daily to help avoid Candida (yeast) uprisings or stop them after they have started. Research has shown that daily ingestion of yogurt containing the bacterium Lactobacillus acidophilus helps in the prevention and treatment of yeast infections. If yogurt isn’t your thing, taking L. acidophilus capsules also has been shown to help prevent yeast infections. Schedule an appointment with your doctor If yogurt doesn’t do the trick. The doctor can prescribe other treatment options for yeast infections, such as oral or topical anti-fungal medication: ehow.com

Answer #2

you should enver leave a tampon in overneight at least change it every few hours also the easiest way to cure a yeast infection is to see a doctor he/she can figure out if you really have one or not something more serious and they can give/prescribe you medicines, pills, creams ect that can make it go away a lot quicker

Answer #3

I’ve never tried it myself, but I’ve heard it works.

Either way, it won’t hurt you and the worst that can happen is it just doesn’t work and you need to get an ointment instead.
