You could drink a lot of cranberry juice or what not and they sell over the counter treatment for yeast infection.

First off, I'm guessing we're talking about vaginal yeast infections? Listen, you don't need to be ashamed or embarrassed. It's nothing bad. Yeast infections are often caused by simple things like taking antibiotics or using harsh laundry detergent or bath soap. It's no big deal and definitely not your fault. BUT you should do something about it right away or it can get serious. If you really want to treat it yourself, do as many of the following as possible. If it doesn't improve in a few days, see your doctor. + Get plain, unflavored yogurt with no added sugar, and be sure that it contains live acidophilus cultures [available in natural foods stores and supermarkets]. Apply the yoghurt to the affected area once or twice a day until at least a day after it's cleared up. Also, dip a tampon into the yoghurt and insert it as usual. Change it regularly as usual. + Switch to pure cotton panties that aren't too tight. + Make sure your panties are washed in pure, mild laundry detergent e.g. for babies or sensitive skin. + Use unbleached, eco friendly toilet paper. + Don't use any toiletries with strong scents or colours e.g. scented soap, scented sanitary pads, etc. Try this website for more info - http://www.msu.edu/~eisthen/yeast/ Hope this helps!

It is nothing to be embarrassed about, any more than you should be embarrassed about having a cold or sore throat. There are generic yeast infection treatments, such as equate, and name brand, such as Monistat which you can get at the Wal Mart pharmacy. You should not be ashamed to tell your mom, but I don't know your relationship with her so I won't tell you to talk to her about it. You certainly SHOULD be able to. As far as home remedies go, I am not familiar with any, though I am sure there are some...a yeast infection treatment kit can usually clear it up in as little as three days.

There is absolutely nothing to be embarassed about, it's something that just happens. There are sometimes things that can contribute to it, but not always (the same as a cold or flu). You can go to the pharmacy and but something called Monistat, it usually will clear it up in a day or so. If not then you need to talk to your mom because you may need a prescription to clear it up. It will not clear up on it's own and will only get worse and make you more miserable.

Don't be scared. Sometime women get it from taking antibiotics..there are many reasons. If you don't get it treated by a doctor it could cause you problems further down the road. Don't let it go any longer. Tell you mother! There is nothing to be ashamed of or scared of. This is just one of those things women have to deal with. Please...go tell your mom. The only way you can treat it is by seeing a doctor.

It will not go away by itself. Additionally, as everyone else has said, it is nothing you need to be embarrassed about, don't worry about telling your mom, she has probably had them too. There are over the counter medications, however, if you have never had a yeast infection before, you need to go to the doctor to have it diagnosed in case it is another type of vaginal infection such as Bacterial Vaginosis. BV will not go away with over the counter yeast infection medications and must be treated with antibiotics. Left untreated it can cause Pelvic Inflamitory Disease which can lead to infertility. Please be careful and take good care of yourself.

Yeast infections are just part of being a woman. They happen. You should tell your Mom. While there are over the counter medicines you can use, it is always best to see a doctor to be sure it is a yeast infection. Also, a doctor may be able to tell you how you got the infection. That way you can prevent another from happening. Good Luck!

Embarrassed to tell your mom you have an infection? That makes me very sad. My daughters come to me with all their problems. I guess your afraid she will think your sexually active. I promise, you don't have to have sex to get a yeast infections. Go tell your mom you need her help. You just might make her feel wonderful to know that you love and trust her enough to come to her with a problem. Best of Luck to you.

Well like everyone else said, you should tell your mother. She is supposed to take care of you and if she doesn't know that something is wrong, she won't know to help. Anyways, I had a yeast infection before and I went to the doctor for it. They just told me to drink ALOT of cranberry juice. Any kind of Cranberry juice takes it away. Mine went away pretty quick. Good luck.

youck...get that twat cleaned up before u come near me

butoconazole (Femstat 3), clotrimazole (Lotrimin), miconazole (Monistat), and terconazole (Terazol 3). Most doctors prefer to treat vaginal yeast infections with vaginal tablets or suppositories rather than oral medications. Oral antifungal medication can cause side effects such as headache, nausea, and abdominal pain , while vaginal treatment is unlikely to cause these side effects.
