Dealing with a vaginal yeast infection is embarrassing as well as annoying. No woman emjoys going to the drug store to pick up any medication for a vaginal infection. Continually going to see their doctor about chronic vaginal infections is another activity that's not an enjoyable experience. Most women would be more comfortable if there was a way they could deal with the infection from the comfort of their own home.
Even though yeast infections can be fairly common, it is still embarrassing to walk up with a tube of anti fungal cream and put it on the counter to be bought. Even though the staff at the drug store/chemist won't even bat an eyelid at the medication, the feeling that they know you have a vaginal infection is not a feeling that a lot of women are comfortable with.
As well as being embarrassed by the purchase, OTC yeast creams only treat the symptoms of the infection. Vaginal discharge, burning and itching are only stopped by the medication while the cause of the infection goes untreated. And the problem is, the infection can still come back, and when it does it will become resistant to the cream.
Going to the doctor's office with another yeast infection is equally embarrassing. Nobody likes such an intimate examination to begin with even if it's only the once. If you have a yeast infection, the embarrassment of having a doctor "inspect" you can be very nerve racking.
Even prescription strength medications only treat yeast infection symptoms. Even though they are more powerful than OTC creams, the infection will still lay dormant until the next time. To successfully rid your body of the mutated Candida yeast you must treat the infection from the cause.
Thousands of women have begun to lean towards home remedies for their choice of cures. Not only do you save the embarrassment of buying medication from a store, or going to see a doctor, you can also treat the actual infection itself.
Before prescription drugs were available women were treating their yeast infections for hundreds of years successfully without any problems.
The important thing to remember is, you must see your doctor for your first diagnosis. It's crucial to get a correct diagnosis so you know that you are actually treating a yeast infection and not something else. - 15255
