Get Rid of Those Nasty Yeast Infections at Home With These Remedies

Using Boric Acid
This is a potent antiseptic which a lot of women have found to be very helpful in the treatment of fungal infections.

As per a study from the year 2009, the application of diluted and topical boric acid demonstrated good outcomes as a cure in the case of vaginal contaminations. In fact, a lot of products such as boric acid suppositories are readily available for purchase in online retail websites.

It is advised to use boric acid with extreme caution as boric acid can cause acute circulatory failure, kidney damage, and death in some cases when absorbed in large amounts by the body. Boric acid should never be ingested or used on broken skin.

One should never use boric acid or anything that contains it during pregnancies.

Always dilute boric acid using an appropriate quantity of water prior to applying it onto the vulva or the vagina.

Using the Essential Oils of Oregano
Origanum marjoram or common oregano is generally what we find in the aisles of the grocery stores we visit. But contrary to how it may seem, the oil of oregano that is used to treat infections is not the same as the regular one.

What you are looking for is the oil that is manufactured using wild oregano, also known as Origanum vulgare. It is rich in antifungal components such as carvacrol and thymol.

People who use blood thinners are advised not to use oils of oregano in any form whatsoever since it is also a blood thinner. It is also advised to keep away from this oil in case you face blood-clotting issues.

Keep in mind: Essential oils are NOT meant to be ingested orally. You are supposed to inhale them as a constituent of aromatherapy. A lot of researches are trying to find other means to use these essential oils, but for the time being, it is meant to be diluted in other oils such as sweet almond or olive oil for usage.

Usage: Place 3 to 5 drops of oregano oil for every ounce of the carrier oil that you are using. Then, massage it onto the skin or inhale using a diffuser. It is strictly advised against applying this oil in close vicinity to the vagina.
