How to Use Yogurt As A Cure to Bacterial Vaginosis After you obtain your yogurt, you can do one of three

things with it: Eat it Soak a tampon in it and place it in your vagina Fill up a vaginal applicator with yogurt and insert it into your vagina You may be wondering why eating yogurt will be just as effective as the other two ways. The answer is that when you eat yogurt, the cultured bacteria goes into your stomach and then colonizes your intestinal tract. However, bacteria are so small that some of them can escape the intestinal tract and get carried off to other parts of the body. If the tissue is friendly to the bacteria, meaning that the Lactobacillus bacteria usually colonizes that tissue, then some of the bacteria starts residing in the new tissues. Traveling through the blood, the Lactobacillus will eventually make it to the vagina. Once the Lactobacillus gets to the vagina, then youre on your way to the cure for bacterial vaginosis. The bacteria will reproduce, displacing the anaerobic bacteria whose numbers have reached high enough levels to cause a discharge, fishy smell, itching and pain. When the Lactobacillus bacteria take over, your symptoms disappear, along with the bacterial vaginosis. If you dont like the taste of plain, unflavored yogurt, its not a big deal. Simply soak a tampon in yogurt for about five to ten minutes and insert it into your vagina. Leave it in for about two hours or even overnight. Remove the tampon. You should notice that most of the symptoms are gone with one application. From time to time, repeat the process, just to stay healthy. The third way to use yogurt is to insert a vaginal applicator full of plain yogurt into the vagina. When you use this method, youll want to wear a panty shield, just to catch any yogu rt that may fall out of the vagina due to gravity. Whether or not some of it stays in the vagina, this method will still work. Thats because as long as some of the yogurt is absorbed by the vaginal tissues, the Lactobacillus bacteria will reproduce and the colonization process will have already begun. Now that you know the cure, go get some yogurt!
