[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I take garlic and probiotics when I have a lady infection. I don't do garlic pills, I actually chop up garlic, let it get exposed to the air for a bit and then swallow the pieces like pills. For comfort in that area, I put PLAIN yogurt on it. PLAIN...not vanilla, nothing with sugar but plain yogurt helps soothe it. And you should always take probiotics when you are taking an antibiotic but they are good to take regularly anyway.

That is what I do. You should do what you feel comfortable with. Good luck.

Do a week long course of monistat and put some of the cream on the outside too twice a day.  That should clear it up.  YOu should do the internal one along with externally because there is bound to be a bit in there.[/quote]

In the meantime (like right now!), you can buy a tube of anti-itch cream for your ladyregion in the same part of CVS as the yeast infection treatments.

Anyway, until I can actually talk to someone to get an appointment, I've started to use Tea tree oil - wet a cotton ball with water, and a little tea tree oil, and dab it to the affected area. You can get tea tree oil at CVS.[/quote]

[quote=Anonymous].  You can also try to take a bath with some vinegar in the water, but if you are burning that badly, I'd skip that step.  Some yeast does not respond to the over the counter meds, but you'll know by next week, and be able to get to the doc.[/quote]

[quote=Anonymous]Tea tree oil cleared up a major yeast infection I had when all sorts of prescription topical and oral medicines didn't.  You can get tea tree pessaries (I think that is what suppositories for the vaginal area are called) at Whole Foods or health food stores.  They are a little stingy, but at least in my case cleared the problem up (follow the directions - you insert them each night for a number of nights).  Tea tree oil has a medicinal odor - so you are not going to use them during the day.  The pessary will melt inside of you so some of the stuff will reach the outer lips as well as the inside infection.  Put the pessaries in the freezer prior to using - then you can insert them more easily.
