    Yes it could work but it has to be a specific yogurt. It should be plain, not sugar/fruit added, I do not recommend this type of treatment, first off, you should make sure you have a yeast infection (go to the doctor) if you know that is what you have, just get monistat, they now make a 3 day ovule that I hear works better than the one day. Good luck, feel better

    I have never heard of putting it inside their to help I know there is medication you can insert up there that you can buy over the counter that can work but make sure you get the 5 days instead of three day kit. I know if you eat plain organic yogurt like a cup of it a day can help prevent you from getting yeast infections because of the bacteria that is in yogurt I would consult a doctor before you put anything up there.

    sounds like a urinary tracht infection. classic symptoms! drink lots of water and have a glass of cranberry juice every day, my urologist told me i could never take tub baths again ,so i am committed to only have showers. guess what? i havent had any more infections. a yeast infection is very uncomfortable as you have severe vaginal itching and a white discharge. you dont usually get this unless you are sexually active. if your symptons dont clear up you need to re-visit the doctor. sometimes they put you on an anti-biotic that is called broad spectrum until they get the results back from the lab, then they will know exactly which medication will work. hope this helps you till you see your doctor.

    Using a LIVE plain yogurt contain Lactobacillus will help ease the burning in and around the vagina, but wouldn't never use it solely as a curative, you need to get a anti fungal pessary or a one dose tablet from your pharmacy, you can get various products on prescription, but most are available in supermarkets and pharmacy for general sale, if your sure its Thrush you need a product containing-Clotrimazole=Canesten.(google it)

    But you should have a swab done at the Docs by the nurse, or a well woman clinic/or sexual health clinic just to make sure.

    However many woman are prone to reoccurring attacks of thrush throughout there life for various reasons, and will treat it themselves being sure what it is.

    It can, but it's a lot easier (and less mess) to just eat yogurt and take an acidophilus capsule once a day.
