This natural cure for vaginal yeast infection works for recurring
infections, yeast infections while pregnant and breast yeast. It has
also been very successful with chronic vaginal yeast infections that
will not go away; especially those associated with Candida glabrata,
which is very resistant to Diflucan.
Candida glabrata does not
cause a milky white vaginal discharge but it does itch and often burns.
Candida albicans causes the milky discharge. There is a difference in
how you should treat the two so make note of your symptoms.
These
infections are usually the beginning of chronic vaginal yeast
infections so this is the right time to get rid of them for good before
it gets worse. They indicate that your good bacterial counts are right
on the edge and at certain times are having a hard time controlling
yeast.
Good bacterial levels can fluctuate due to diet and over
the counter medicines or prescription drugs. Excessive sugar and simple
carbs from grains are the worst offenders, especially over extended
periods of time. A good example of this is the holiday season from
Halloween to New Years with the over consumption of cakes, pies, sweets,
etc. Every year after New Years I am deluged with emails from women
that have yeast infections because of it.
Diet also has an
influence on estrogen levels. The phytosterols found in vegetables
control excess estrogen and turn it into the harmless variety that won't
cause problems in the body. The bad variety called 16-hydroxy and
4-hydroxy estrones not only cause breast cancer but they raise the
glycogen levels in the vagina that feed yeast.
This natural cure for vaginal yeast infection will not only get rid of the yeast, but you can use the same recommendations to prevent yeast infections during these times of year. Vaginal yeast infections are much easier to prevent than they are to get rid of just like colds and flu's.
If this is your first or second time you have had a vaginal yeast infection or you don't think that this is turning into a chronic problem, I would click on over to the vaginal yeast infection remedies page and use those suggestions. If this is turning into a chronic problem, keep reading.
If your infections are turning into a chronic problem, the first thing you need to do for the natural cure for vaginal yeast infection is follow the Candida diet found
on this website or at least cut the blatant sugar and simple grains
from your diet. There is no point in feeding something that can be very
hard to get rid of, especially when you consider that if the food supply
is good, yeast can double its population in one hour.
The next thing you need to do is get an enzyme formula that eats yeast and its biofilm. The biofilm protects it from herbs or prescription medications and studies show that removing the biofilm greatly enhances their positive effects. We recommend Biofase but you could use any of these others that we have reviewed on the Candida yeast enzyme page here.
You will also need a probiotic and I suggest either Profase, or the 11-Strain
formula. It is impossible to know in advance which one of these
probiotics will work the best for you because we are all different, but
Profase is formulated to kill yeast and the results so far have been phenomenal.
Although Profase is the best yeast killing probiotic, dosage wise it is the weakest. So what you could do is take it with Floraphage, which is a prebiotic that has been proven to raise bacteria levels 2400% and turn those 30 billion bacteria into a possible 720 billion. If you have a history of urinary tract infections caused by E. coli, I would definitely take this because it kills it.
If you suffer from pms, you have to get the excess estrogen under control because it raises glycogen(sugar) levels in the vagina, so either DIM or I3C Indole-3-Carbinol are suggested. Dim works indirectly by changing the way estrogen is metabolized, from the ‘bad’ pathway to the ‘good’ pathway. I3C has been found to alter estrogen's damaging effects on the body and the thymus by activating genes that metabolize excess estrogen. This metabolization process lowers high estrogen levels.
Start taking one capsule of Biofase one hour before breakfast and one hour before bedtime with the probiotic of your choice and one capsule of Floraphage. Doses for the probiotic need to be either one capsule of Profase, or one adult scoop of the 11-strain.
After three to five days raise the dose of Biofase to two capsules twice a day and follow with one Profase and one Floraphage. Continue at this dose for three to five more days.
The next step is to raise the dose of Biofase to three capsules twice daily and double the dose of Profase. Take one Floraphage each time.
I would take one capsule of I3C with breakfast or lunch and two capsules of DIM with dinner.
Just so you know, birth control pills can contribute to this problem because they have an affect on your hormones. Sometimes you do need to stop taking them to get this under control or at least try a low hormone dose pill.
If you want to speed this process up and make it more effective, you can also use any of the remedies on this page directly. That way you will be killing it from the inside and out.
Boric Acid suppositories work the best if you are infected with Candida glabrata but sometimes work well for other yeasts. The coconut oil bullets work well for Candida albicans.
