You might feel unlucky when you get a yeast infection.
Actually, you shouldn’t worry much, not because it is a minor condition but
because there are so many things to deal with it. What you need to know is what
causes the condition and act upon avoiding them. You may also need to learn
home remedies that are effective. This post will guide you in finding the right
answers for recurring
yeast infection prevention.
Let’s start with the causes. The causes for yeast infection
are suitable environment. These include a dark, moist environment, abundance of
nutrients for them, and for you a poor diet and hygiene. Basically, if you keep
yourself wet (sweaty) and dirty then you’re just welcoming the condition. You
have to focus on a healthy and clean lifestyle to rid the condition from the
start.
For remedies, let’s start with exercise. It is actually a
great measure on how to prevent yeast
infections. Exercise can boost your body immune system, which is very
crucial in yielding off yeast infection. Take note that whenever you get poor
immune system, you have higher chance of acquiring infection, yeast included.
Just remember to change clothes directly after workout where you get all
sweaty. Moisture is also a contributing factor to the infection.
Taking note of the medications you are taking actually gives
you an idea if you are at risk for this specific infection or not. Antibiotics
as well as oral steroids can increase the likelihood of yeast infections. Antibiotics
for one affect the natural flora balance of bacteria in the area. Bacteria help
check the growth of other microorganisms in the area, which then controls
growth of yeast. Oral steroids on the
other hand can decline the function of the immune system. Of course, you know
already what would happen after that.
