Has anyone heard of using vinegar to cure a yeast infection?

Answer:
Vinegar won't cure a yeast infection, but it sure will hurt a lot. Don't be cheap, go and get Monistat or one of the meds that actually work.

No. I think it's alot healthier and safer to just get some OTC medicince for like 10 bucks...

I've never heard of that, but taking garlic supplements to treat them. I know from experience. Take 3000mg-5000mg per day until it's gone. No antibiotics! and it's cheap. You can go to Wal-Mart and get it in the vitamin aisle.

no but I have heard of putting a clove of garlic up there to cure a yeast infection, although I would never do it! My sister has done this and she says it works really well.

That will hurt, try an over the counter solution, or talk to your doctor...

---

you can use it as vinegar douche

Flushing your vagina with a dilute solution of vinegar and water occasionally--no more than once a week -- may help prevent yeast infection recurrences. The vinegar makes the vagina a little more acidic, which is bad for yeast.

hmmm Vinegar , dont know about that..

that may burn and be messy, gross, and smelly. and the arlic thing sounds just as bad, putting any food up there makes u prone to infection. get some monistat at your drug store!!!!!!

I tried all sorts of natural things to cure these in the past because Monistat wasn't working. Turns out I had a different kind of infection. If you're just trying to save money, I'd just get the Monistat. It's faster than the other stuff. You can run some warm water in your tub and put in a 1/4 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar and sit in it. It does help by making you more acidic. You could also get tea tree oil suppositories. These may work, but I put one in and it burned horribly. Some people use boric acid suppositories. I've never tried them. In sum, I'd use the drug store brand.

I never heard of using vinegar to cure a yeast infection but what I know what the doctors use vinegar for is when you go in for a pap and the do the exam if they see lesions while there doing a pelvic exam they will put vinegar on you lesions to see if is cancer because the lesions will turn white if it's cancer.

wow! the only thing I can say is Ouch
