What Yeast Infection Treatments Does Conventional Medicine
Offer?
The following is a list of several treatments conventional medicine offers as a
way of dealing with yeast infection. I have used all of them, but unfortunately
none has been able to effectively eliminate my yeast infection and the
symptoms involved with yeast infection in the long run. This is mainly because
most of these treatments, over-the-counters in particular, are focused on the
symptoms of the disease as they provide “patches” rather than addressing the
root factors.
There are in fact some antifungal agents that can effectively kill the yeast.
There are three caveats to that treatment:
1) It works temporarily. Candida yeast infection is a complex
condition. To effectively kill it you must neutralize the
environment that keeps it alive. Killing the yeast will be like
cutting the plant but leaving the roots. It will grow again.
2) Candida is a pleomorphic organism, which means it can change
form and develop resistance to the antifungal treatment.
3) Most antifungal treatments also carry a myriad of side effects,
some of which are serious.
Over-The-Counter (OTC) Medications
Most over-the-counter medications are aimed at treating the infection in the
affected area to control the multiplication process of the yeast.
There are creams that are inserted using an applicator into the vagina or are
spread around the penis area for men. For women there are suppositories to
be placed in the vagina that dissolve with body heat to release the active
ingredients.
There are also topical creams available that deal with the uncomfortable
symptoms of yeast infection such as itching, burning and inflammation.
