    Yeast Infection + Wisdom Teeth = Unenjoyable; Tips for dealing with a Y.I?

    I've had a yeast infection only once before and I took the Monistat 3 Day capsule. I also remember it being the 3 worst days of my life.

    Anyway, I have confirmed that I definitely have a yeast infection today, after some uncertainty the past 2 days. Now, I'm getting all 4 wisdom teeth out this Tuesday afternoon, that's 2 days from now. I don't want to experience comfortability in all places, so knocking this yeast infection out as quick as possible would be ideal.

    I know the answer already before asking this, but ANY MIRACLE 2 DAY CURES? To be fair, this yeast infection, so far, is pretty mild.

    I think I'll take the 7 day capsule this time since the 3 day was so un-enjoyable. Is this a smart idea? Anybody taken the 3 and 7 day ones have a preference?

    I stuck a clove of garlic up ma hoo-hah for about 30 seconds before removing it out from pure burning pain. I'm buying some plain yogurt. How exactly does this work? I soak a tampon in it for how long? and leave it inside me for how long?


    Thanks for reading a ramble!

    Um I don't think you are supposed to stick garlic and yoghurt up your hoo-hah, you're supposed to EAT them.

    A trip to the chemist/pharmacist can help you, there are plenty of over the counter medications that are available, from tablets to creams and the pharmacist will point you in the right direction.

    Please no more sticking things up there, will only lead to more problems and complications.

      There seems to be information out there that yogurt can be put in the vagina, but it has to be the right type. It is used to reintroduce good bacteria. Eating the same type of yogurt is good for maintenance as is drinking pure cranberry juice. The yogurt has to be plain without sugar, coloring or fruit and must contain live and active cultures. It is best used after using medications to kill off all of the bacteria and then using the yogurt to reintroduce the good bacteria. Some sources indicate it can be used overnight for several nights and other sources suggest a 10 day period of use. You are trying to give the good bacteria a competitive advantage over the bad bacteria. I searched Google with [vagina yogurt] for information.
