yeast infection

I get yeast infections frequently and I would like some natural remedies to prevent and cure them. The infection is usually on the lips of my vagina and around the area of the vagina.

Hello there :)

Recently i came across some products at my local health store.  There is quite a range of products out there for it, all natural.
I read and have used Acidophilus tablets which help kill yeast infections.
I know yeast infections thrive on sugar, so i would try and avoid sugary foods.  
Also "live" natural yoghurt helps too, doesn't sound too good i know, but thats what they say.

I would definitely go into your local health food store and look or ask for something to help the infection.

Hope this helps :)

Diflucan, does it help?

Are you sure it's yeast? Have you been tested.   Have you tried a new soap, laundry detergent, fabric softener, toilet paper?  You should avoid all soaps and perfume when washing yourself.  Use just water.  There are a lot of different causes for yeast like symptoms.  If you haven't seen a gyn, you should.
