Anti Fungal Cream For Yeast Infection: How I Cured My Candidiasis

Yeast infection; also know as Candidiasis, is an infection caused by an overgrowth of yeast cells, mostly caused by Candida Albicans strain. It affects both men and women, but women have increased risk of acquiring it.

So does boric acid works as a viable treatment?

The short answer is yes. Boric Acid in the form of suppositories capsule can be a great help of eliminating yeast infection. What it does, is that increases the level of PH balance of the vagina, making it normal again. This will help on bring back the balance between yeast and other microorganism, thus eliminating the resulting infection.

Patients who are suffering from chronic yeast infection can benefit greatly from boric acid, especially the ones who have not responded to common prescription over-the-counter drugs and anti-fungal creams.

Pharmacies that have more advanced personnel can prepare boric acid capsules for you. The best option would be gelatin capsules. Make it size “0”, with boric acid containing about 600 mg in powdered form.

Application would be fairly simple, before going night to bed; insert one capsule into your vagina. If the yeast infection is persistent, you can try to insert two capsules in a daily routine, one during the night before going to bed and one in the morning.  Vitamin E can greatly help with the treatment, it reduces the chance of irritation. You can take vitamin E in capsules safely during the boric acid treatment.

Using boric acid for yeast infection treatment usually spans about 3-7 days typically. The more serious infections, such as chronic yeast infections, the longer it takes longer to treat. It is important to know that prolonged use of boric acid can cause irritation of the vulva and vagina.

Using Boric Acid as treatment exposes you into some dangers because of its properties. Here are some steps you can take to prevent any complications with its use:

• Be vigilant with extreme irritation and burning, you may be having an allergic reaction.

• Do not take the capsules orally, nor expose it to open wounds on the skin. Boric acid can be toxic in large amounts.

• Avoid this treatment option if one is pregnant.

You can also do some lifestyle changes along with boric acid treatment to further increase its affectivity. My suggestions will not only help you with the treatment but also reduces the risk of future yeast infections.

One thing you can do is consuming yogurt. Yogurt has lactobacillus acidophilus; these microorganisms are normal flora of your vagina.

They will help in restoring the PH balance of your vagina. It is important that you choose the unflavored and unsweetened ones, since sugar are the food sources of yeast.

Another lifestyle change you can do is drinking buttermilk daily.

They have also properties that help in prevention and cure of not only yeast infection, but also other conditions. For best results, drink at least two glasses of buttermilk a day, one in the morning and one in evening before going to bed. For a bonus effect, a cold glass can help with your sleep.
