Of course you want to choose a yogurt that is all natural, plain and contains no fruit and sugars! You can simply apply the yogurt on and along the inside of your vagina and repeat 4 times a day. And for a nice soothing treat, use it while it’s cool from the refrigerator for some instant relief from the burning and irritation that is common with yeast infections.
