How to get rid of breast yeast infection?

Question by : How to get rid of breast yeast infection?
I am suffering from breast yeast infection for many years. Tried a lot of various treatments but very little of them used to help and they didn’t help that much. I would appreciate an advice of some good solution or method on the internet to get rid of my breast yeast infection. I’ll appreciate any advice. Thank you.

Have you tried Nystatin powder? If there is a lot of redness you could also get your doc to write you a script for triaminocinolone/nystatin cream. It is a steroid and anti fungal together. Good Luck!!!

Ahh, candida. I’ve had my bouts with that. My allergist put me on what was called a “candida yeast free” diet. You can look more up on it at google.com also.

Basically, it was just a diet taking out all those things that cause the candida to grow in your body. Sugar,breads, pastas,mushrooms, anything made with mould (cheese), most fruits. The idea was to starve out the candida and let it die down.

What happens is that the body’s natural balance can gotten of track and this has allowed the candida to over grow. Acidopholus pills can be taken that will replenish the “good” bateria in the body. They can be found at most health food and vitamin stores. Also, your good old standard of yogurt, but make sure it says that the culture is “live active culture” or you get none of the good bacteria this way.

Ask your doctor about this too. There are pills to help ease up the growth these days if it’s a big problem. I know for those that keep having vaginal infections due to yeast, there is Nystatin. I’m sure there are others by now too.

Q&A: Can you give a yeast infection to a breast fed baby?

Question by : Can you give a yeast infection to a breast fed baby?
My son has had diahrea, it’s weird, it looks like there’s cottage cheese type looking chunks in it. The doc did not actually see his poop. But he tested him for microplasma & rhodavirus, both came back negative. He has no fever. I’m taking him to the doc again today. But I’ve only had 1 yeast infection before, so it’s hard for me to tell if maybe I have one. If I had a yeast infection & my baby gets breast milk, could he get a yeast infection?

That’s what breastmilk bowel movements look like. He’s fine. If you had a yeast infection on your nipples he might get thrush, but it would be in his mouth, not throughout his body. It would look like white spots that would not wipe off.

No worries. 🙂
