There is a continual balancing act going on in your body amongst various micro-organisms, among them bacteria and yeasts. A yeast infection or overgrowth can occur when the bacteria which help control it get depleted for some reason, such as taking an antibiotic. The bacteria in the yogurt help to replenish your body's supply, so that the balance can be restored. Both eating it and applying it directly can be beneficial.

Of course, it would not be possible or desirable to rid your body of all micro-organisms. There are many which are required for good health--hence they are called "benefical." It is when the contol mechanisms, whether your own immune system or other micro-organisms, are compromised that some of these "friends" get out of place and become enemies.

And if you want to cure yeast infection with natural treatment, you can try herbal therapy "fuyan pill" from Wuhan Dr. Lee's TCM Clinic. It is made up of natural herbs, and it has the similar effects with antibiotics.

Hope this could help you.
