Can Using An Over-The-Counter Cream Cause a Yeast Infection?

Many women use over the counter yeast infection remedies even before they get an infection. This is because they think that taking anti-fungal medication and creams before getting an infection will prevent an infection. This is completely untrue!! If the medication is not needed, it will cause a chemical imbalance in the vagina. This will then result in an fungus infection. You should never use anti-fungal treatment before you are diagnosed with a yeast infection.

Mutating Candida (What causes yeast infections when in excess)

Using over the counter yeast infection products before you have an infection will cause the harmless Candida Albicans yeast living in your vagina to mutate and multiply. When Candida Albicans mutates it results in an excess of fungus and creates a yeast infection.

Once a yeast infection has occurred from the over the counter yeast cream it will no longer be effective at killing the yeast. By applying the cream before you had an infection you have produced a yeast resistant to the specific medication. This means that you will need to use a different and stronger medication to kill the yeast. Visiting your doctor will be a must so he or she can prescribe you an oral anti fungal medication. Even though oral medications are effective they do have some side effects. Over time they cause chemical imbalances in your intestines and weaken your immune system.

If you do not have an infection there is no need to treat it with medication. It is fine to take natural preventative measures such as eating yogurt and drinking cranberry juice but never take a cream or medication that is specifically used to treat fungal infections. This will in no way prevent an infection and in some cases cause and make a yeast infection even worse.
