I had a very bad yeast infection off and on for 7 months. Tried everything and my last hope was garlic.I put it inside of me on a string and chopped a glove everyday and ate it. Gone after 1.5 days. Don't waste your money on stuff- just by a couple of organic garlic. Just remember it is natural and good for you!Replied By Shari (Richmond, Usa) on 03/25/2012
how did u use it for yeast infection?Replied By Three-little-pitties (Minnetonka, Mn, Usa) on 03/29/2012
I just wanted to post a note about garlic and a followup to curing yeast infections. First I agree garlic is a wonderful herb! There were a few years I had terrible teeth problems and could not seek help. When I got a tooth infection, my cheek would swell up quite large and it was painful to say the least. 1 clove of garlic diced or smashed and then swallowed 4 times a day and the swelling and pain would be gone in 24 to 48 hours. When I could stand it, I would also put a smashed clove directly on the infected area. While I would feel a burning sensation after a few minutes, it worked wonders.
I believe most often, yeast infections are a result of prescription antibiotics because they kill the good bacteria along with the bad, thus leaving us females ripe for repeated yeast infections. If you have experienced this, please take probiotics for at least a few months to get your body back on track.
