What treatment is available for vaginal yeast infections?
Vaginal yeast infections are usually treated with a medication that you put directly into your vagina. Medicines typically come either as a cream that you insert with a special applicator or as a suppository that you put into your vagina and let dissolve. Medicine in a pill form taken orally is also available. Eating yogurt and drinking cranberry juice or taking cranberry supplements has been known to help yeast infection sufferers. Though there are few studies done on their effectiveness. Eating yogurt helps to restore the natural bacteria in your body while cranberry juice helps to restore the natural acidic levels in your body.
