monistat-it’s over the counter
she really needs to go to the dr…its not uncommon for teenage girls to get yeast infections, you dont have to be sexually active to get them. she needs to take vitamin c at least once a day and you can get monestat over the counter at walmart. i think someone over 18 has to purchase it but its very good at killing yeast….also if she eats yogurt with live bacteria, thats good for her to make sure the yeast does not come back. good luck.
If your sister is scared to go the the doctor she really doesn’t care about her health.
It’s a yeast infection, NOT a big deal.
Like the first person who answered replied, there are meds that you can get in stores.
She doesn’t have to, there is nothing to be scared about with a yeast infection, they are not life threatening and they don’t change you down stairs. They are very common for woman to have. You or you can go with her to get some Monostat (or Canestin) from the pharmacy. Use the 3 day treatment some times one day doesn’t get all of it. If that doesn’t help then she may need to go to the doctor.

Hi Lindsay,
For years some doctors have advised women to insert live yogurt into the vagina to introduce Lactobacillus acidophilus bacterium and also produce a more acidic environment to help fight infection. Sometimes, freeze-dried Lactobacillus acidophilus bacterium containing pessary is inserted into the vagina for even more pronounced results. Continue this for an extra day after you get cured.
There are other effective natural cures for yeast infections available that can help to soothe the discomfort and frustration of a yeast infection, resolving the infection without the use of prescriptions and OTC drugs. They contain ingredients such as Cymbopogon citratus (Lemon grass), Calendula officinalis, and Tabebuia impetiginosa (Pau d’arco bark). All have antibacterial and anti fungal properties that effectively remove toxins and help to support the overall natural maintenance systems in the body.
For prevention, ask her to wash her panties with extra care as the yeast spores are left in the panties if you are infected and normal laundering won’t kill the fungus. Scrub the crotch of the panties with unscented detergent before washing. She may also put her panties in boiling water for sometime or soak them in bleach for 24 hours before wearing them. Hot ironing your panties is also a good idea as candida may die due to heat.
Wear loose fitting clothes, made from cotton fiber if possible, to allow good air circulation. Fibers like polyester, plastic and leather trap the moisture inside and also render poor circulation. This makes the environment near your genitals prone to infections. Remember, try to sleep naked if possible, or at least remove undergarments (panties), to allow the vaginal area to become cool and dry. This shall provide you her immense relief equal to all the medicines combined.
Hope all this helps
Good Luck!
In treating a yeast infection, there are numerous treatments. To begin, in the morning mix two teaspoons organic apple cider vinegar with two cups of room temperature water. Fill douche bag and use accordingly. And in the evening: Mix one teaspoon live yogurt, unflavored, with one cup of warm water. Fill douche bag and use accordingly. Garlic is another homemade remedy for a yeast infection. To use garlic effectively, you can apply garlic paste on the skin around your vagina.
