Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 *** Hi ... this is embarrassing, but I really need to know this. Is there a natural way to cure vaginal/urethral itching? Thanks in advance............................. Gayle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 get a douche bag that holds at least a quart of water with all the attachments. Drug stores usually carry this item or search the Internet. Use about 1/2 cup of BAKING SODA and mix with one quart of warm water. Fill the bag with it. Douche with this lying in the bathtub on the first day of your period and on the last day of your period. Continue for about one year and stop. See if it comes back and if it does then start over with another year. the cause of your problem is a yeast infection. Baking soda retards the growth of yeast. (Vinegar will make it grow.) Yeast infections are worse during menstruation. An Army Doctor told me to do this about 30 years ago and I did it for one year. I have never been bothered by it since. Rubbing the bottoms of your feet with 2 drops of oil of oregano mixed with 2 tablespoons castor or olive oil should help too as it is anti yeast. It is too strong to be taken by mouth but can be if you want to try it, then only put about 1/2 drop on the tongue. Follow with something to drink. It is very strong. I much prefer to put it on the soles of my feet as it will be absorbed into my body through the skin. I use this method for viral infections of all types but it is good for yeast also. Do not get it near the eyes or mucus membranes, it burns like h---l. Also I would not use it for over 3 days without a break of about 1 week. Also do not confuse baking soda with baking powder.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Hi Gayle, Good onya for having the courage to ask! Have you been checked for a yeast infection? What is your overall health like? Diet? My first suggestion would be to try massive probiotics. You can even douche with yogurt. My second suggestion would be herbs that are anti-parasitic and anti-fungal. Rainforest herbs are particularly good for that. Down in the Amazon you either evolve to fight fungus, or you turn into one. Sangre de Drago can be applied topically and taken internally. Ask me off list for the Sangre de Drago file. Handy stuff with a gazillion uses. Ien in the Kootenays http://freegreenliving.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your response to my post. I am wondering one thing. Does it take one whole year to get rid of the yeast problem??? Perhaps I am not understanding what you are saying. Thank you for the baking soda idea. I will try it. .................. Blessings, Gayle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Hi, I'm a midwifery student and I heard about your yeast problem... DO NOT USE BAKING SODA WHATEVER YOU DO!!! OH GOODNESS NO!!!! It makes yeast worse! Douching is really a BAD idea unless you HAVE a yeast infection, and should not be done if you dont have the symptoms. and it does not take a year to get rid of one. My suggestion is just to put a clove of garlic up your vagina every night, and take it out in the morning, unless its REALLY bad and then one in the morning and one at night, taking the last one out before puting the next one in, of course! lol... you shouldn't worry about loosing your garlic in your vagina, but if you do, you can put some cheese cloth or gauze (which hurts) around the garlic then tie some non-waxed floss at the end and make a little tampon like thing out of it. If you dont feel like stinking, you can put some acidophilus riden live cultured no-sugar plain yogurt in your vagina. The best way to do it is to freeze it in the fingers of disposable gloves, and use them up there that way. it offers releif from the itching burning awfulness that is a yeast infestation. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask! And if neither of those work I have a whole host of other options that you can try, its just that these two are the easiest and work really well! You may also want to ask your husband/partner/ if they have been having an itchy penis, if he has a yeast infection its very likely that you gave it to him, and he will give it back to you once you finally get rid of the gosh awful thing. : ) Hope that helps! kylie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gayle > Ok, after reading your ORIGIONAL post, I am wondering if you actually have a yeast infection... Are you having a yeast smelling vaginal discharge? Is it white and lumpy? (Actually its not always white and lumpy, just usually, but the yeast smell is a tell-tale sign.) IF you dont have the smelly discharge, then you dont have a yeast infection. Is your vagina red? I'm sure you may not want to answer all this to the world wide web, so to discuss this further from the eyes of men you can email me here: germidwife4israel I still would not douche with baking soda, though.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 *** Thanks, Kylie. I am thinking about the garlic that you mentioned. It is supposed to be good for a lot of reasons. I've never heard of this one, but it makes sense to me. I will check it out. Thank you for responding to my post!...............

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 you have my sympathies if you try this gayle. other alternatives i've heard of, is to insert plain yogurt into the vaginal cavity, or boric acid capsules -- 1 a day for 7 days. However, I haven't tried these myself, as I have with the baking soda thing. , <peacock wrote: > > the > Use about 1/2 cup of BAKING SODA and mix with one quart of warm > water. > > *** Hi, Thyme.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 The Doctor who advised this told me to do it for one whole year and to then quit and see if it came back and if so, then to do it another year. I did it for a year on the first day of my period and again on the last day. He said that yeast grows rapidly during the menstrual periods. I was following his orders and it worked. While it never has come back for me since 30 years ago, I did have it frequently before that. The itching was really quite intense. I was so happy to find that the baking soda actually did eliminate the itching and growth of the yeast. He also said that while vinegar would encourage yeast to grow that baking soda would retard the growth and he was right. I had always douched with vinegar before his advice.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 A severe bacterial infection can also cause these types of symptoms. What does it smell like? If it's yeast smelling or no smell, it is likely a fungus. If it's fishy its bacterial. Is there a discharge? Is it cheesy like small curds? That's yeast. If its green, yellow or gray that's a bacterial infection. Most of these infections will also require that your intimate partner be treated also as they can give it right back to you. Sometimes these can also be caused by colorings, perfumes, and ingedients in soaps, toilet tissue etc. For Yeast you could try the following: Plaid yogurt 1Tbs inserted in the vagina, 3 times daily until itching has stopped, this can be done with a tube applicator like you would get with over-the -counter yeast medications and NO douching as douching changes the flora balance internally and will make irritation and infestation worse. As for the urethra I would start on oral Candida supplements immediately. Also drinking fresh unsweetened cranberry juice to keep the bladder balanced. Nylons or man-made fibers don't allow for proper air circulation and so fungus can grow where it stays moist. Wear cotton underwear if you have to, otherwise forgo the underwear until symptoms are relieved. This will allow the area to dry out some and air to circulate. Keep the area clean and make sure that after a bowel movement you are wiping from front to back. As White Vinegar is known to kill Thrush (also a fungus) you could add a cup of white vinegar to your bathwater.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 My naturopath puts me on a douche with a few drops of tea tree oil in warm water several times a day and in between douches unflavored but active culture yogurt, such as Dannon. Also some cranberry either in capsule or juice form helps a lot. I am getting ready to start this all over again as I have a bruised bladder from a recent car accident and with the urine constantly being present, its causing a lot of itching and burning for me. , Jenny Kernan <rainysnana wrote: > > A severe bacterial infection can also cause these > types of symptoms.
