The Secret to Staying Yeast Infection-Free…Forever!
So you think you have a yeast infection. Go to the doctor to confirm your diagnosis, make sure to rule out any other type of infection or STI, and buy Diflucan online. With one oral dose your yeast infection will be history, but how do you prevent the next one before you develop any symptoms?
Here are six guidelines for how to stay yeast infection free:
- Wear cotton underwear only. Nylon or lycra or any other synthetic materials do not breathe. This means that air cannot get in or out causing yeast to grow. Never wear pantyhose without cotton underwear on underneath.
- Always wipe from front to back. We all have yeast living in our intestinal tracts, which is normal, but when you have a bowel movement, some of this yeast can be spread to the vagina if you aren’t careful.
- Be aware when you are purchasing vaginal lubricants to use during sex that petroleum based lubricants can promote the growth of yeast in the vagina. Stay on the safe side and buy water based vaginal lubricants only.
- If you have to take a course of antibiotics to treat an infection, your doctor may advise you to be aware of the symptoms of yeast infections. It is pretty common for women to develop yeast infections after taking antibiotics. To try to prevent this from happening, you can eat a yogurt a day. Yogurt contains pro-biotics that should ward off a yeast infection, but once you notice the symptoms, it will not make it go away, see your doctor for proper yeast infection medication.
- Stay away from douches. Douches are usually used to clean the vagina, but what they actually do is strip the vagina of all its important enzymes that work to protect the vagina from bacteria, yeast, and from all sorts of infections. The vagina is amazing; it cleans itself.
- Vaginal irritation can lead to infection, so stay clear of perfumed soaps, and wash with simple, non-scented soap.
