know of natural cures for yeast infection?
Answer:
I've heard live yoghurt works.
Answer:
Garlic directly and yogurt for vaginal yeast infection, as they stated insert yogurt or try this.
Another remedy I have used that worked is to put a thread through a massive garlic clove so you have a double string that you knot at the end like you do a needle (use needle to thread and then remove the needle and insert the garlic clove (peeled) into the vaginal like a tampon and leave for a day or so.
If more strength is needed, make some small cuts into the garlic.
Surprisingly, this does not burn at all, but if you make the cuts, it might sting a tad but I don't have any problem with it doing that. This is very effective.
I opriginally heard of it from dr richard schulze but looked on the internet and got you a few links about it.

this last one has other remedies as well and mentions both yogurt and garlic suppository
If you’re referring to candidiasis, I just read about this coconut oil detox that kills them in 3-7 days that I am thinking of trying.
My allopathic doctor prescribed a low dose of nystatin to take over a year times but I only did it for a few days and then forgot and I don't like to take medical drugs so I may try the coconut oil candida cleanse.
Answer:
Hi first of all before you use anything first check to ensure it is a yeast infection you’ve.
Natural Live yoghurt inserted inside using a tampon helps tremendously also cut down on any foods and drinks which contain sugar because sugar makes yeast active also avoid alcohol which contains both sugar and yeast and avoid bread.
Try a bit of vinegar in a not too hot bath.
Hope it helps
Answer:
it is called acidophilus
Yogurt, the traditional source of acidophilus, has been used as an elixir in folk medicine for hundreds, and very possibly thousands, of years. A current study showed that eating yogurt containing live acidophilus greatly reduced the recurrence of vaginal yeast infections. Researchers theorize that additional acidophilus bacteria grow in the vaginal canal, bolstering the normal Lactobacilli flora but leaving no room for the growth of yeast.
However, it can be difficult to determine how much acidophilus is really in yogurt. When using supplements, read labels carefully:
A therapeutic form should contain at least
1 billion organisms in each pill; smaller amounts might not be potent enough to have beneficial effects. Acidophilus is sometimes sold in combination with bifidus or with another ingredient that promotes the growth of friendly bacteria called FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides).
Acidophilus products should state they contain live cultures or active cultures. Be sure to check for an expiration date
Whatever form you buy, store it in a cool, dry place, such as the refrigerator. Heat can easily kill live acidophilus, as can freezing temperatures. You can get them in pill form and works much superior than putting a tampax up your……….
Answer:
You could try tampons dipped in LIVE natural yogurt. This contains lactobacilli, which is the helpful organism that normally protects the vagina against such infections. However if things don't settle swiftly there are a number of 'unnatural' but very safe and effective preparations available from the pharmacy.
Answer:
- Fivelac probiotic supplement, 4 sachets per day. A cheaper substitute is too ferment milk at home, obtain some Kefir Grains from the 'Yahoo Kefir Group' or ebay. This has more active probiotics and fights candida albicans {the yeast causing the infection}, make a smoothie from the kefir, as it is naturally sour {like yoghurt}, add raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, 1 banana, 2 tablespoons of cocconut oil, 2 teaspoons of Xylitol; Place in a blender, and then refrigerate.

- Oxygen Elements Max, 7 drops, thrice daily.
- Virgin Cocconut Oil - 4 tablespoons per day, after meals. Also aplly topically to localised yeast infections on the skin. This contains Caprylic acid, Lauric acid, and other medium-chain fatty acids, which are anti-pathogenic, anti-fungal, and kill yeasts like Candida Albicans.
Don't worry about SkepDoc's opinion, he suffers from a sickness, he is unable to comprehend anything against what he learns from the news, quackwatch, and any other like-minded individual, and his not biased 
Unfortunetly, he is far to gullable and arrogant for us to reason with him.
His also rude, attacking people who believe in religion, saying they are 'deluded'.
''This forum, like the Religion & Spirituality one seems to be just for the deluded to reinforce their pet delusions with each other,''
