Does yogurt help yeast infections?
I've read online and people have told me that if you stick a tampon in regular vanilla yogurt and stick it in and leave it in that it can help kill yeast cells. I bought yogurt and got home and I was about to do it, but I read that it should be sugar free yogurt. I couldn't find any sugar free yogurt, although the yogurt I got is a "light" yogurt. I think it has about 10g of sugar. Is is still okay to use, or should I try harder to find sugar free yogurt?"

Eating yogurt. If ur gonna put yogurt up there u want PLAIN, not vanilla, and yes sugar free, including no fake sugars either. If u have a yeast infection, eat ur yogurt (any yogurt) or some probiotics, and get some Monistat.

I don't know about that. If you EAT yogurt with acidolphilus that can sometimes help. Go to the pharmacy and look for something called Genetian Violet. It's really cheap but stains anything it comes in contact with. Try applying that with your finger if you do not want to insert anything like you would with Monistat.
