subject: It Can Be Really Embarrassing To Go To The Doctor For Yeast Infections. [print this page] It can be really embarrassing to go to the doctor for yeast infections, not only will your doctor ask you why you are there but they will ask you to describe all of your symptoms. Who wants to admit that they have vagina itching odor out loud? And then what, the doctor prescribes you a cream with things that you can't even pronounce and says that you should feel better soon. Well, I wanted better results than that. What I really wanted was to have something that would help me prevent yeast infections while treating the symptoms and curing the underlying problem.
Tea Tree Oil- this was a simple solution to a long term problem. I had heard that tea tree oil was a powerful astringent and they were right it is. According to the pharmacist all I had to do was place a drop or two on a plastic tampon applicator and insert it into the vagina. He did want me that sometimes tea tree oil can cause a burning sensation so if this happens, just rinse the area with a lot of cool water and you will be fine.
Gentian Violet: this is another well known cure; there is a standard usage for this cure. You will need to place a small amount of it (5 milliliters) on tampon that is then inserted in the vagina for three to four hours for up to twelve days. This is a great treatment but be sure that you use a panty liner as it may stain clothes.
Cranberries : these are known as natures great detoxifier. They are able to clean out the toxins that have built up in your kidneys and liver as they are helping to restore the natural balance of the vagina. The treatments are as simple as drinking juice or taking it in tablet form. Simple!
Finally, try to remember that you need to avoid tight clothes or undergarments that are not made of cotton.
