Causes and Cures for Repeated Yeast Infections

YEAST INFECTION bannerNobody likes repeats, so it can be said that the most horrible thing to have are repeated yeast infections. But why do you keep getting them even after you have treated them? You can’t help but wonder if there is something wrong with you–well don’t worry. There is nothing inherently wrong with you, just the yeast in your body. Here are some ideas as to why you could be getting these annoying repeats.

Immune System Issues
If you are on any medications that can compromise your immune system, you will generally be a candidate for repeated yeast infections. Your immune system is what is responsible for combating illnesses and infections and if it is not running at 100%, then you will continue to suffer with these yeast infections. If you can get off of drugs like antibiotics or Prednisone, do it as soon as you can and in a safe manner.

Yeast Take Over–Medication Tolerance
After your fourth yeast infection in a year, it is safe to say that your little yeast problem has turned into a big yeast problem. Allowed to their own devices, yeast cells can mutate into a much more aggressive fungus that is extremely difficult to treat.

If you didn’t get to the root cause of the yeast infection in the beginning, then you probably only killed the weaker yeast and let the stronger yeast lie dormant. Then when the conditions are right, the stronger yeast rear their ugly heads and you have another flare up.

After multiplying several times, the yeast mutated and now they are a fungus. You have essentially built up a tolerance to the medications you have been using to treat you infections. All-natural remedies might be your best option if you really want to rid your body of this horrible overgrowth of yeast cells.
