A member asked:

What are the remedies used to eradicate yeast infections in women? how long does it normally take?

Dr. George Klauber answered

Specializes in Pediatric Urology

Probiotics by mouth: On a regular basis may help to eliminate yeast infection or better prevent reinfection. 7 day course of Miconazole or Clotrimazole antifungal cream or vaginal suppositories is quite reliable (not 100% guaranteed) at eliminating most yeast infections.
