Yeast Infections With Bleeding
Vaginal Yeast Infection-How To Treat Naturally
Vaginal yeast infections, medically known as candida or monilia, are characterized by irritation, severe itching, and a thick white discharge that may smell like baking yeast. However many of the vaginal infections are caused not by yeast, rather by bacteria called as bacterial vaginosis. If you have any doubt, be sure to see a health care professional for accurate diagnosis.
Some of the common causes of candidiasis are like use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, OC-pills, intake of steroids for long time, diabetic patients, or hormonal changes(such as those occurring before a menstrual bleed).
Inside of our intestines, we have naturally harboring bacteria which may be “friendly bacteria” or “unfriendly bacteria”. The friendly bacteria is necessary in our guts to allow the proper digestion and absorption of nutrients as well as keeping the unfriendly or bad bacteria in check so we do not have an overgrowth of bad bacteria. But when we use broad-spectrum antibiotics, it kills all the bacteria within our gut without differentiating between friendly and the unfriendly ones.The intake of antibiotics reduces the stores of good bacteria and as a result causes the overgrowth of bad bacteria including yeast organisms.
Quite often alternative health professionals suggest dietary modifications instead of prescription antifungals.Dietary modifications include restriction of foods such as dairy products(with the exception of yogurt), sugars, yeast rich items such as beer, bread, wine, and fermented foods like vinegar, soya sauce, pickled foods, etc. It is also suggested to consume raw or lightly cooked garlic which is known to have strong antifungal and antibacterial effects. It is good to develop a healthy habit of eating raw vegetables which must be properly cleaned. Mushrooms, which are a fungus, should be avoided at all costs. Truthfully, the only safe foods to eat for someone suffering from a yeast infection would be, corn tortillas, tuna packed in water, eggs, rice cakes (plain) and fresh filtered water.
Supplements may be taken to make up for the decreased immunity. Supplements like vitamin A, C, E, zinc, probiotics, grapefruit seed extract, myrrh, goldenseal, slippery elm are advised. Some of the homeopathic remedies used for vaginal yeast infections consist of Kreosotum, Caladium, Mercurius, Apis, and Berberis aquifolium. As to the right supplement or homeopathic protocol for you to follow, these would be based on individual need and symptomology.
In order to decrease the discomfort level from yeast infection, you may take the following steps.
1. Wear loose fitting, natural-fiber clothing. Remove damp and sweaty clothes as early as possible.
2. Avoid wearing panty hose. Even if you wear one, you must cut the crotch.
3. Do not use too much soap while washing your clothes, otherwise use natural detergents. Detergent residue in your underwear can irritate the vaginal area.
4. Wash with a non-perfume or non-irritating soap and avoid washcloths, as they harbor fungi. You should also avoid bubble baths.
5. Avoid scented toilet tissue.
6. Use sanitary napkins rather than tampons during menstruation.
If you follow the above suggestions, yeast infections can be controlled naturally. It is realistic to avoid yeast infections forever, as long as you are willing to perform some lifestyle changes and address yeast infections as a whole body issue, and not just address the symptomology.
