Good luck

I’m sorry to hear about your recent bouts with yeast infections. They’re definitely NOT fun. Unfortunately, many times fluconazole may take care of yeast infections, but it’s normally only a temporary remedy and the yeast infection almost always comes back–sometimes worse than before. I would recommend that you use Yeastrol and for added benefit I would suggest another product mentioned on this blog called Oregasil. Oregasil is a wild oregano oil that has a ton of benefits including anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and, most importantly for yeast infection treatment, anti-fungal properties. It will come with some veggie capsules and a dropper cap. To begin with, put about 3-4 drops of the Oregasil oil in a veggie cap and take WITH FOOD and a few ounces of water–2-3 times a day. After a week, you can increase the dosage to 5-10 drops in each capsule. You may start to feel some “die off” symptoms–sort of like flu-ish symptoms. If these die-off symptoms get too bad, back off on your dosage a bit. But don’t stop taking the oil. Take it steadily at these dosages for at least three weeks. Once you see that your yeast infection is gone for good–you can go to a maintenance dose which is normally 3-5 drops once daily 3-4 times a week. This works for me, but you can experiment a bit and find what works best for you. Oregasil is also great for keeping flu and colds at bay. If you start feeling flu-ish or like your getting a cold, start taking the oil asap and it usually keep colds and viruses from coming on.

Also, your diet has a lot to do with yeast infection occurrences. Stay away from any yeasty foods such as breads, beer, some nuts, etc. There are a few posts on this blog regarding diet suggestions and there is also a ton of diet information for yeast infections on the web.

Let me know how you’re doing! I hope these suggestions are helpful.
