Preventing Yeast Infections - Some Basic Tips

There are factors other than poor diet and damp, warm skin that will trigger a yeast infection. Hormone changes and the use of antibiotics and steroid medications are probably the most common. We can control some of these factors, but not all of them.

Hormones:

If you are using a contraceptive pill and find that you get a vaginal yeast infection at the same time every month, it may be the hormones in the pill that are triggering your infections. You can talk to your doctor about using a different form of contraceptive that doesn’t affect your hormone level.

The same thing goes for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women during menopause. If you started getting chronic infections after going on HRT, talk to your doctor about possible alternatives. You might also want to talk to a naturopathic physician who may be able to suggest ways to avoid the menopausal symptoms without HRT.

A high-sugar diet and obesity can both affect your hormone levels. So can a thyroid dysfunction, a pre-diabetes condition, and uncontrolled diabetes. If you think one of these issues may be causing your chronic yeast infections, definitely bring it up with your doctor.

Antibiotics:

If you’re sick or have a bacterial infection, you may not have much choice about taking antibiotics. Unfortunately, many doctors assume that you won’t be happy if you leave their office without a prescription, so they prescribe antibiotics even if you don’t really need them, and sometimes even if you have a viral infection and they know antibiotics won’t help.

Make sure you let your doctor know that you are only interested in taking antibiotics if you really need to.

If you do need to take a round of antibiotics, talk to your doctor about possible steps you can take to limit the possibility of a yeast infection.

Once the antibiotic regimen is finished, you can help to replenish the beneficial bacteria in your colon by eating a cup of yogurt every day (make sure it contains active cultures). There are over 500 different species that inhabit a healthy gut, and yogurt can’t replace all of them, but it definitely helps.

If you can’t eat yogurt, try to find a supplement that contains active cultures at the natural food store, or ask your naturopath for a supplement that will help.

If you are going through puberty and taking a long-term antibiotic medication for acne, you may have both fluctuating hormone levels and antibiotics triggering yeast infections.

If you are now experiencing yeast infections and you never did before, talk to your doctor about other alternatives for your acne, or make an appointment with a naturopathic physician who may be able to suggest dietary changes that will help.

And if you or one of your children have chronic yeast infections in spite of eating a low-sugar diet, you may be getting antibiotics in the meat, poultry and eggs you eat. Try switching to certified organic products instead, and see if it helps.

Your immune system:

If you have a compromised immune system because of AIDS, chemotherapy, or the use of steroid medications, be sure to talk to your doctor if you see the first signs of a vaginal yeast infection. Self-help is not a good idea in these conditions.

If you don’t have an underlying condition that has damaged your immune system, you can improve the functioning of your immune system by following a good diet and getting lots of exercise. Drink plenty of water, too, to help your system flush out any toxins.

A number of people have asked me for advice about natural yeast infection remedies to use when nothing seems to work. I read through many books and articles, and I recommend Yeast Infection Away by Crystal McBride. Her information is well researched, and the instructions are easy to follow.
