How To Treat Yeast Infection Instead Of Monistat And Probiotics?

i think I have a yeast infection and I have been taking probiotics and using apple cider to try and alleviate the symptoms, but it only works for a couple of hours. I have been avoiding Monistat because of the pain it inflicts. Do you have ideas for additional treatments?

Hi..Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

monistat is a treatment system for fungal yeast infection in vagina. It contains antifungal medicine & ointment. It should not inflict any pain or so. If you have trouble like that you should visit a gynaecologist & suggest another treatment plan.
Here are some remedies to treat yeat infection
1 keep your vulva clean & dry and keep your under garments neat and tidy.
2. Avoid excessive sweat formation by using dusting powder
3 You can also use antifungal soap. doing a sitz bath can be helpful

Refer to your gynaecologist for consultation

Don't worry you would be fine
Hope this information helps.
