Yogurt kills yeast by producing hydrogen peroxide. Use this as a topical medication directly to the vulva and vagina. Dip a tampon in yogurt and insert in vagina. Do this twice a day, once in the morning and at night till symptoms go away. Another way is to take a tablespoon of yogurt and inset into vagina. This is best done at night just before going to bed. Regular douching with yogurt has proved effective. Along with these cures it is also advised to eat plenty of yogurt. It is good for your entire system and will cure the fungus too.

The yeast Candidida is the cause of "yeast" infections. It causes localized inflammation of the skin. This is why you get the sores. A good treatment is to use plain yoghurt on the area.
