Does any one know anything else that I can do for a horrible yeast infection?


I have had a yeast infection for a few days. I did Monistat 1. It's an ovule that u do over night. I also keep cream on. I can't seem to get any kind of relief and I don't go to the DR. until Tuesday. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your best bet for relief is Diflucan. It can get rid of a yeast infection within 24 hours of taking it. But since you can't get to the Dr's yet, yogurt containing lactobacillus cultures, applied with an applicator or as a douche, is one form of temporary relief. The stamp, "contains live cultures," on the yogurt container indicates that it contains lactobacillus cultures. Drinking cranberry juice may also help prevent the occurrence of yeast infections and aid in their treatment.
Also, don't use soap on your vagina. Summer's Eve has a feminine wash that's gentle and contains no soap, therefore none of the irritation.
Omggg i had this it hurtss soo much!!

Right, use canesten which has the mother and baby logo on it, as the other canestens can sting.

Wear cotton knickers and try and sleep without bottoms on to give yourself air.

Drink cranberry juice.

And use mild soap ie: simple soap.

Mine was very bad and in the end i went to the doctors.

Also vaseline might help??
As yucky as this might sound, plain yoghurt. Apply liberally to the vaginal area and also to help keep yeast infections at bay eat some plain yoghurt daily.

Make sure that the yoghurt has acidophilus in it
Go to your local health food store and get cranberry pills, do not drink the juice it is loaded with sugar and can cause a urinary tract infection. There is also a product that the health food store has that will level your PH balance so you will not get yeast infections.
Good Luck.
Try vagistat. Take a shower and wash the area with gentle soap and water. Dry with a clean towel. Lay down on the bed and allow yourself to air dry completely. Place the vagistat and the use the external cream. If the external cream from monistat is not working for you, try benedryl lotion or gel. Why not call the doctor and ask him for a prescription for Diflucan?
You should be able to get Canestan in oral form. it's a one dose capsule. You can get it from the pharmacy without a doctor's script. Well you can here in Australia. Good luck , It's horrible i know!!
Use Natural Yoghurt inside the vagina and just outside after washing with soap and water for the time being. It will soothe the pain and itchiness as well as controlling the growth of the fungus.

But bring your partner as well when you see your doctor
