Alright yawl, last year around December I had some tooth trouble , so I go to the dentist and he does his dentist thang and then gave me some antibiotics. Over the course of the 16 day treatment I take my prescription with no problem and then BOOM! It hits me like a mac truck! A dang yeast infection, like any other sistah I mosey on down to my local drug store to retrieve some over the counter drugs to bring some relief to my sad situation. I get to the feminine needs isle only to find one hundred and fifty two products for yeast infections. One day treatments? Naw sounds too good to be true. Three day? Naw....Lemmie go on a get that 7 day joint just to be safe.*One Month later* I find myself in my OBGYNS office acting the fool because my sunshine is burning like hell and nothing is working! All she's doing is giving me the same meds over and over again to treat the same yeast infection that keeps coming back! Errrrrrrrrrrrrggggggg!
I find myself becoming more and more depressed because my doctor is telling me the same ole tired rap and I'm still walking around with gasoline draws on. *Literally*. After a while I feel like I hit rock bottom and start a search online for all possible causes of a yeast infection this fierce and found out that the culprit that started this forest fire were those dang antibiotics! I was so HOT! This means I've been walking around in agony, going back and forth to my OBGYN (her ass knew what kinda antibiotics I was on and aint say nothing!) and this is the reason why?
Ladies be very careful of what you let these doctors give you because all they will do is continue to pump you full of costly drugs that wont help your or make your situation worse. All these damn people had to tell me was to take some kinda pro biotic after I was done with my anti biotic but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! They just wanted to try and kill me while running my poor insurance into the ground! This is very important ladies, a long standing yeast infection can KILL YOU or at the least make you very sick and you wont even know why. What the doctors don't tell you is that yeast grows in your digestive tract as well as your vagina. Even if you get rid of the symptoms that doesn't mean that the over growth of yeast is not still present in your vagina and other parts of your body.
Take the extra effort to try and (Gently!!) cleanse your colon and digestive track once a year. After you do your colon cleanse take a pro biotic like Lactobacillus acidophilus. Lactobacillus acidophilus is a bacteria that is already present in your vagina and your digestive tract. These good bacteria help to protect your vagina and digestive tract from unhealthy organisms and the over growth of yeast. When an antibiotic is taken it kills off some of the good bacteria in your digestive tract and vagina which leaves room for the yeast to multiply (overgrowth). L.acidophilus also consumes many of the nutrients other bad microorganisms need survive.
What to do if you feel a yeast infection coming on?
Run out a get some Lactobacillus acidophilus! Don't buy anything less than 3billion live cells per capsule. Take 3 a day with a meal and you'll feel better in no time! For relief from the symptoms you can start by taking two golden seal root pills 3 time on the first day with a meal, then the second day take your L.acidophilus!
You can take two Olive leaf extract pills with breakfast and two with lunch and before bed take your 2 capsules at 3billion cultures each of L.Acidophilus before bedtime.
One cup of apple cider vinegar to a hot waist deep bath helps.
Slather some unsweetened organic yogurt on a pad and wear it for an hour. The cold from the yogurt on your vulva and the L.acidophilus present in the yogurt help sooth the vulva.
you can also insert a clove or garlic into your vagina. The best way to go it is to peel it smash it and wrap it up in some cheese cloth with a string tied around the opening. Insert the wrapped garlic with the string out ( Like a tampon string). Leave it in over night and you'll be good to go in the morning. I would suggest doing this until you feel better.Three to five days. Hope this helps someone!
