Yeast infections can lead to serious illness, so make sure (if you have it, or are prone to getting them) you get treatment. My wife had a severe case of fibromyalgia and suffered for many years with pain, chronic fatigue syndrome, and clinical depression. She was on many medications and various treatments all to no avail. It took one individual who owns a health food store in our town to come up with a solution and all in about three minutes. It was all related to yeast within the body. She gave my wife a book which listed the foods she could and could not eat, (sugar was a big issue), and gave a plan to rid the body of bad bacteria while increasing the good bacteria. Anyway, within two weeks her pain diminished by 90%. All I am saying is, that doing nothing about the yeast infection can lead to serious consequences. So, treat it!
No- Z-pak is an antibiotic to cure bacterial infections. Prescription Flucanzol (Diflucan) or OTC monostat is for Vaginal Yeast infections. There are several other prescription medications used for oral thrush. Antibiotics can actually cause yeast infections as a side effect
Monistat 7 is an antifungal cream designed for vaginal yeast infections and should not be used to treat penile yeast infections. Men with penile yeast infections should consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Garlic is not recommended for treating yeast infections on dogs' skin. In fact, garlic can be toxic to dogs and may cause gastrointestinal upset, anemia, or even more serious health issues.

bye getting one of those packets or ask a doctor?
Yeast infections are so common that nearly $2 billion is spent yearly to cure this often recurring condition. Yeast infections affect women a lot more than men. Probably because yeast thrives in dark, moist places. Anybody knows where that is?
They poured lemonade on the troubled areas.
Yes, over-the-counter yeast infection treatments do cure/treat yeast infections - that's why they're sold! Just make sure that you follow the instructions and if you find it doesn't work it's a good idea to see your doctor to confirm it is just a yeast infection and maybe get a different stronger treatment.
I always heard antibiotics cause a yeast infection. Is this true?
No, in fact, some antibiotics can potentially cause a yeast infection. Yeast infections are caused by yeast and not bacteria. Azithromycin is an antibiotic that acts on bacteria. BV or bacterial vaginosis is like a yeast infection, and it is treated with an antibiotic, but a different one.
No. Penicillin is an antibiotic and yeast aren't sensible to antibiotics. I think that she meant to say yeast is not Sensitive to antibiotics... not sensible... Antibiotics can actually make a yeast infection worse related to killing off the use bacteria in the vaginal canal (normal flora)
Yes. For instance, yeast infections and thrush are normally quite easy to cure.
You don't - once you have an established yeast infection, you will need some form of medication to eliminate it.
