No: If you truly have a yeast infection, drinking extra water would not have that result. You would need either an oral or intravaginal treatment to effect a cure. Talk to your doctor to discuss treatment and to make sure the diagnosis is correct.

Water is not a cure: If it’s your 1st possible yeast infection or you aren’t sure if it’s yeast – see your dr. Tx options: vaginal cream, ointment or suppository for sev. days (7 to 14 days sometimes). OTC meds include monistat (miconzole), Vagistat-1 (tioconazole), Femstat (buoconazole), Gyne-Lotrimin or Mycelex( clotrimazole). If OTC meds don’t work see your Dr. S/he may order Diflucan (oral antifungal)
