May 18, 2009 | 
Author You are not alone in looking for home remedies for yeast infections. Those of us who know when we have a recurring yeast infection do not always want to be bothered with going to the store for over the counter medications. It’s so much easier to have something right at hand at home that can take care of yeast infections. Some home remedies for yeast infections can be messier than the over the counter creams and some can be very soothing. I’ll give you a brief explanation of them and another less known relief method.
Some people spread honey on the outside of the vagina, the labia, to relieve the symptoms. You need to take a warm bath afterward to remove all traces of the honey. The sugar in the honey can work against you if it is allowed to remain in the ******.
A soothing alternative to the other home remedies for yeast infections is a warm bath with one cup of vinegar in the water. Most people use apple cider vinegar but it may not matter. Soak for about 20 minutes and dry off thoroughly when done.
Tea tree oil is a popular natural anti-fungal. If you’re comfortable inserting a tampon in your vagina, you can put a couple of drops of tea tree oil on the tampon and insert it for a few minutes, morning and night. You can also insert it just before you go to bed at night and remove it first thing in the morning.
