This is a common problem among women who get yeast infections regularly. Nearly 3 out of 4 women will experience at least one episode of vaginal yeast infections in their lifetime, but many will experience recurrent yeast infections. While the 1-day treatment will work effectively after first use, it can disappoint many women when used a second time. Often the infection seems worse than the day before and causes great discomfort and pain.

Many women are so desperate for a cure at this stage due to the constant itching and pain that they will consider buying the 3-day treatment just to get the same result.

What about the 7 day treatment? Should I give it a try?

Your doctor will most likely advise you to continue the 7-day treatment if the 1-day yeast treatment did not work to clear the infection. The 7 day treatment involves using it at night for a whole week and is often a messy process due to leakage the next morning. However, many women have also reported that the 7-day treatment can be excruciatingly painful, causing sharp pains in the vagina. And that’s because most women are allergic to the ingredients in the treatment. If you experience excruciating pain with the 1-day, 3-day, or 7-day treatment, stop and talk to your doctor.

Are you absolutely sure it’s a yeast infection?

Often buying the wrong treatments can only make the infection worse. So how do you recognize a yeast infection? The usual symptoms are:

A thick white discharge like cottage cheese that has a slight yeasty odor, severe itching and burning, pain in the vulva and vagina, pain during intercourse, and a burning sensation when urinating.

If you do not experience these symptoms, I urge you to have it confirmed by your doctor.

Is there any other treatment I can use to get rid of this horrible infection once and for all?

If you’ve tried prescription drugs and creams like Monistat and Diflucan and the 1-day thrush treatment didn’t work, there are plenty of women who can attest to getting rid of the infection with natural remedies. They are often more powerful than prescription drugs and have no side effects. Some of the most effective remedies include raw honey, lactobacillus acidophilus, white vinegar, tea tree oil, and garlic.

You should also know how the infection materialized so that you can combat it naturally. Yeast naturally resides in the vagina, but there are certain things that cause yeast to overgrow. These can be: regular use of antibiotics, changes in vaginal PH during menstruation or pregnancy, a poor diet (refined sugary foods, excess caffeine, excess alcohol, etc.), a weak immune system, and even stress can cause yeast overgrowth. If antibiotics cause a yeast infection, then you can understand why treatments like the 1-day treatment don’t work every single time. You may be feeding yeast.

The best way to prevent vaginal yeast infections from recurring is to maintain a healthy immune system with proper nutrition (reduce refined sugary foods, avoid fatty foods, limit alcohol), take a lactobacillus supplement (plain yogurt is a great source), exercise regularly, limit antibiotic use, and take garlic capsules (a natural yeast killer) every day.
