A lot of women panic when they get a yeast infection in pregnancy, they first of all want to get rid of it in a way thats safe for them and the baby and also they want to keep their baby from contracting it when it is born.
Its a tricky situation to be in, but if you happen to be in these circumstances, here are some safe solutions that you can try out:
1. Eating Yogurt
If you have a yeast infection in pregnancy, one thing you can consider trying is eating yogurt. Yogurt has plenty of healthy bacterial cultures within it that give off hydrogen peroxide. This byproduct just happens to be toxic to yeast.
If you eat a lot of yogurt, you can help to kill off the yeast living within your body, just be sure that the yogurt is sugar free, we don’t want to be feeding the yeast with the sugar.
2. Tampon + Yogurt
There are other ways to use yogurt to fix this situation, one other solution is to use it vaginally. What you do is apply the yogurt to a tampon then leave that in for around 30-45 minutes.
What happens when you do this is the live bacterial cultures will begin to fight off the yeast in your body. If you do this every day for at least 2 weeks, you will notice an improvement.
3. Tea Tree Oil + Olive Oil
Much like the solution above, what were going to do here is first coat a tampon with some olive oil to act as a base, then put a few drops of tea tree oil on top of that.
When you’re at this point, just insert that for around 45 minutes and the anti-fungal properties of the tea tree oil will begin going to work on the yeast.
So if you have a yeast infection in pregnancy, these solutions should be of help to you, but they will not get rid of the problem for good. In order to really get this issue handled, you need to kill the yeast spores, this is something few treatments can do.
