To cure a yeast infection, there is a cream that is found in any grocery store or drug store. You inject it deep into your vagina, and it comes in a range of 1 day to 10 days. But you need to be careful and make sure you put it in every single day! Because if you skip a day or two you are running the chance of becoming resistant to the medicine.

A yeast infection causes itching or soreness in the vagina and sometimes causes pain or burning when you urinate or have sex. Some women also have a thick, clumpy, white discharge that has no odor and looks a little like cottage cheese.

A vaginal yeast infection is caused by an overgrowth of yeast organisms that normally live in small numbers in the vagina. Things that may encourage an excess growth of vaginal yeast include:

Using antibiotics.

Having high estrogen levels (hyperestrogenemia), such as duringpregnancy, hormone therapy (HT or ET) use, high-dose birth control pill use, and the menstrual cycle.

Having Diabetes, especially if your blood sugars are not well controlled and tend to be high.

Your doctor might prescribe you a single-dose tablet of the antifungal medication fluconazole (Diflucan), which is taken by mouth. Relief can be expected within the first 12-24 hours. You can try fu yan pill also which can cure the disease from origin and prevent more serious diseases like infertility. Topical treatments are available both over-the-counter and with a prescription. These include anti-fungal creams, ointments, and suppositories that are applied and/or inserted into the vaginal area. Over-the-counter creams and ointments can be found at most pharmacies, drug stores, and supermarkets.

Avoid sex, keep your vagina dry all the time, avoid tight clothing, avoid perfumed soap and see a doctor for medication.
