Yeast infection?

kimalee2288

Help! I've never had one before. Is there anything I can use until I can get to the doctor? I know there's some over the counter products I can try but if anyone has any home remedies, I'd like to try them first. Thanks!

I have heard plain yogurt or a garlic clove. Coconut oil also works against yeast.

I don't know about home remedies but monistad 7 day treatment works!

Yes i agree with above,Yeah drs usually suggest or prescribe the 7 day monistat treatment during pregnancy. I had it prescribed to me last pregnancy and it works, I have personally never tried home remedies for yeast infections, but many swear on them. Good luck!

Well I'm not pregnant so that helps with what I can and can't use. I picked up the monist at 3 day treatment and some plain yogurt. Thanks everyone.

I wouldn't recommend the 3 day. My doctor recommends the 7 day treatment because the 3 usually doesn't work. You need a full 7 to completely eliminate it.
