Many people feel more comfortable handling their own body and their vaginal yeast infections on their own. If you are one of those people then rest assured that it is possible to use natural remedies to treat vaginal yeast infections or thrush. It is important to note that you can be allergic to any treatments whether they are natural or store brought. So be careful!
Tea Tree Oil:
You can buy Tea Tree Oil from many supermarkets and natural products stores. One-way of applying it is to apply a couple of drops to a tampon and inserting it yourself. Although you will need to ensure that the tampon doesn't absorb all of the Tea Tree Oil. You can do this by putting your favourite lubricant on the tampon first. Although some people find that the Tea Tree Oil burns the outer area, so be careful, especially in this sensitive time.
Gentian Violet:
Gentian Violet has been used to treat vaginal yeast infections for many years and was used long before antibiotics. It is used by swabbing over the vagina area. You need to do this a couple of times a day for a couple of days. You need to be careful because this very vivid purple Gentian Violet can stain almost anything.
Cranberries:
In the last few years we have all started to recognise the amazing cleansing powers of cranberries. People who lived many years before us knew all about it, but we got obsessed with scientifically made products and forgot about the good cranberry. Cranberries contain particles that lessen bacteria in your body. Which means they may be useful when treating vaginal yeast infections. You can drink it or if you don't like the taste supplements are available.
Itch Relief:
If you are treating you vaginal yeast infection but need something to calm down the itching while your treatment works, it worthwhile trying an elm cream/paste. You can make this by mixing elm power with some water. You can also use aloe Vera juice.
