Causes and Cures for Yeast Infections

Yeast are in the human body at all times, and are a normal part of it. A yeast infection occurs when an overabundance of yeast is produced. This often happens as a result of the vagina being too alkalin, with not enough acid. Birth control pills are often associated with chronic yeast infections, since they alter the PH of the vagina. Taking antibiotics can often cause a yeast infection, since the bacteria that eat the yeast are often destroyed. Other triggers for yeast infections are sexual transmission, injury, HIV, and tight, non-breathable clothing.

Cures for yeast infections
A single yeast infection can often be knocked out with an over-the-counter product like Monistat. If you are getting chronic yeast infections, by all means do what is necessary to get over the current one, then consider these things to break the cycle:

1. Consider getting off the pill.
2. Wear white, cotton underwear by day, nothing underneath at night. During your yeast infection, iron the crotch of your underwear after washing, to kill any lingering yeast.
3. Use white, unscented toilet paper.
4. Take acidolpholous, a supplement available where you buy vitamins.
5. Don't use spermicides.
