If you want to learn how to stop a yeast infection, you are not alone.
Millions of women suffer from yeast infections, and some of them are recurring infections, which means that the infection will reappear even after it has been "cured" once.
I had been a chronic yeast infection sufferer until I found some great home remedies to cure my candida.
Here are some of them: Vinegar bath: The bacteria responsible for Candida (candida albicans) like alkaline environments.
Since vinegar is (slightly) acidic, it makes the vaginal environment impossible to survive for the bacteria.
To use this to your advantage, fill your bath with hot water, then add some vinegar (preferably apple cider) into it, and sit inside the bath for a good 30 minutes.
You might need to do this several times for seeing the effect.
Yogurt relief: Yogurt contains the Acidophilus bacteria, which produces a substance called hydrogen peroxide.
Hydrogen peroxide is deadly for Candida albicans, so yogurt can be very powerful in stopping a yeast infection.
To use, you can dip a tampon in yogurt and insert it into your vagina.
The coldness of the yogurt will even bring some instant soothing to the burns of Candida! You have to make sure that the yogurt you use is pure, unflavored yogurt with no sugar; since yeast feeds on sugar, you don't want that in your vagina.
These are some of the home remedies I used to successfully stop a yeast infection for good.
If you have a Candida condition, I strongly recommend that you try some home remedies first before you visit a doctor.
