yeast infections and sugar

Regarding the sugar issue....yeast thrives with moisture and with sugar. To avoid high spikes in your blood sugar, eat fruit high in fiber and have some protein with it. Never eat fruit by itself. Avoid juice and dehydrated fruit (too much sugar). Last but not least, consider using probiotics. Best of luck to you!

Douching upsets the natural balance of bacteria and yeast in your vagina and will cause infections. 2. Avoid bread and sugary foods as much as possible. If there is yeast in your vagina it is in the rest of your body too and sugar will just feed it. 3. Use condoms if you have sex. You CAN give a yeast infection to a guy (they usually get no symptoms) and then he will just keep passing it back to you. 4. Eat yogurt with live cultures in it - sugar free is best, but any kind helps. 5.

Has anyone had multiple yeast/BV infections? I've had 3 so far and I think I'm having another! I'm going to ob tomorrow and I'm sure I'll get some meds. It's frustrating. Anyone Else?!?! Please help.

You should also give your husband a good probiotic and help him really keep his sugar in check. The less yeast he has the less yeast you will have. Also, I find that during the week before my period starts I am much more prone to yeast infections and of course if I eat a lot of sugar or drink several glasses (sometimes just 1) of wine. It takes a lot of monitoring! Good luck!

with ms, but I have had the same exact question. I was wondering if I had continuous yeast infections and if it had something to do ms. I had recently gone for my annual Pap and all tests were clear for infection..... so what has been causing the "itch". My doc. said that in the beginning (5 months ago) it could have been yeast and I treated it, but to me it kept coming back, or so I thought, she said I must have treated it with the OTC inserts and it went away. But to this day...

What exactly can you do if you have been seen and been treated for yeast infections and no antibiotics oral or suppository has worked to get rid of it? I have had this issues close to two years and doctors seem to be blowing me off about it when I know there has to be a underlining cause for this please help this is literally killing me.

t happen all the times but most times when I am dry. I am 32 years old and he is 49 I have went to the doctor and I keep getting yeast infections. I use the over the counter meds fr it and sometimes the doctor prescribes me creams but it keeps coming back. Is it coming back because I gave it to him and he brings it back to me each time? He is a diabetic and is uncircumcized but he is very clean and has good hygienes in that department.

What about just eating a lot of garlic? I love it. I even have to stay away from sugar and yeast b/c I get infections so bad. Since I've been pregnant I've been eating a lot of both b/c its the only thing I can stand eating. I'm almost over the sick feeling stage so I can cut those two things out and hopefully have a good rest of the pregnancy. I'm sure the sugar and yeast led to the viral infection too.

I have herpes and i have to take antibiotics for it almost everyday to keep it from recurring,but this gives me non stop yeast infections. i am in pain everyday and nothing i do helps. i haven't had sex with my husband for 3 months straight. i am in a lot of pain. i would stop taking the anti,but i cant b/c my herpes breakouts are terrible!

Has anyone on rebif experienced recurring vaginal yeast infections? Have not had this problem in past. Blood sugar is also elevated, no family history of diabetes. Just wondering if the Rebif might be contributing to these problems.

Really appreciate it. Will have to cut on sugar. ANyone else with experiences having yeast infections and using terconazole during pregnancy?

I get yeast infections all the time so i can relate what helps me is my diet chocolate or to much sugar can cause yest infections also try sids bathes there vary relaxing and may help.

Im 6 months pregnant and I have never had this many yeast infections in my life. I only bathe with dial soap and the doctor said I shouldnt take baths, nothing but showers. Can anybody help me with some remedies or something to help with the yeast infections ??

Me too. I took metronidazole fort bv and took diflucan, and got yeast and on and on it went. Except my husband has sex with me anyway. It's really awful. I was prescribed boric acid once. And this was the only thing that worked. Good luck getting rid of that nasty.

There is a correlation between yeast infections and diabetes that is documented. If you have too much sugar circulating which is part of type 2 diabetes, sugars link to yeast overgrowth would then come into play. https://www.webmd.com/diabetes/diabetes-thrush I would try to cut down on sugar in your diet if you haven't already, do the things necessary to deter developing full diabetes (manage diet, exercise, etc.) which should also help with multiple yeast infections.

I’ve had symptoms that lead to believe it something is up with my blood sugar. Random fruity taste and hot flashes and shaking, very mild things and are not frequent. However, I have been dealing with tinea versicolor, white tongue, thick and white vaginal discharge, and flaky scalp. I was wondering if I should look into things regarding my blood sugar. It runs in my family, but I’m a very active 20 year old female, and I again am not experiencing any debilitating symptoms.

) Also if your feeling that uncomfortableness take AZO its for bladder infections but works on yeast infections to it takes away that uncomfortable feeling you get

I'd rather use the creams. I'm currently battling an external yeast infection that has affected the top of my inner thighs (where the leg and vulva meet), my vulva and it's creases, lower abdomen and the very bottom of my butt. Also, near my vaginal opening I scratched myself too hard so there's scratches and it burns like a mother when I pee and the urine flows downward onto it. I am on the larger side of the body size scale (about 5'6 and over 300lbs).

Has anyone else used garlic for yeast infections? I found it as a natural home remedy as well as yogurt and I have no doctor till Monday. Any advice for me?

My mom had recurring yeast infections as a child, which I just recently found out about, and was diagnosed two years ago with diabetes. I have had my blood checked often for my blood sugar levels, so I know that diabetes is not a factor right now. Thanks for the help in advance. This is driving me crazy!

I have frequent yeast infections and my Dr says it's normal but I'm just wondering if it's commin.

so we are back down to your original thought of cutting sugar and I think you can find on the net that yeast loves to hang on to sugar- and the regular hard core cranberry juice has no sugar, and should be diluted.... the breakdown of sugars and glucose and all those chemical questions? Someone with real brains will have to tackle that question- you said there is no more odor and no more discomfort but the odor is back or it is just not a strong or it comes and goes?

I'm 26, no I don't take birth controls. I'm not even sure how I got hormonal imbalance. My doctor said it's stress, and that my estrogen level is at 203. I'm not sure if that's high. My sex hormones I don't have it anymore either. I constantly keep getting yeast infections. And I have to keep seeing the doctor for fluconazole but it isn't working at all.

Candida is an intestial yeast that we all have and when we consume too much sugar this yeast gets out of control, punches holes in our colon and releases toxins into our blood stream and can cause a wide range of health problems. Anyone else?

Try not to eat too much sugar add yogurt with live cultures to your diet and let your privates air out here and there because yeast likes moisture .

So im a ftm and i am just wondering is it normal to get yeast infections alot.

The fissures have healed but it very uncomfortable and nothing seems to work. I have changed my diet and am on a strict no yeast, sugar, dairy, and fruit diet. I am very faithful about the diet and also do not use any kind of scented soap and wear cotton panties and loose clothing. I have also tried several homeopathic remedies such as coconut oil and tea tree oil, these have given me the most relief but it is not going away. My husband is deployed and so I am currently abstinent.

s disgusting, and it takes away one of the few joys I get out of life - sex. I am so tired of yeast infections. If anything makes me want to stop being a woman and turn into a man, it would be a yeast infection. I would even declare that these things have given me depression!! Does anyone have advice for treating these ASAP and, of course, methods for keeping them away?
