Treat vaginitas naturally at home. Vaginitas refers to several different types of vaginal infections that irritate the female genitalia. Itching, redness, swelling, discharge, smell and pain are common symptoms of vaginitas. Vaginitas may be caused by an imbalance of yeast in your system (yeast infection), bladder infection, an allergy to soap or laundry detergent, sexually transmitted disease or other unknown irritant. If these natural remedies do not give you relief within 24 hours, see a doctor for your symptoms.

Eat Yogurt to Treat Vaginitas Naturally

Yogurt is concentrated with cultures that naturally balance healthy yeast in your body. Eat plain yogurt to build up your natural resistance to excessive yeast. If you have a yeast infection, this will help clear it up.

Drink Cranberry Juice to Treat Vaginitas Naturally

Drink plenty of cranberry juice or cranberry juice mix. Avoid cranberry juice that has extra sugar added. If you have a bladder infection, this remedy may clear it up without other medications or trips to the doctor.

Drink More Water to Treat Vaginitas Naturally

Drinking lots of water to flush out your bladder is helpful for many different types of vaginitas, especially bladder infections. Drink at least the recommended eight glasses of water a day, plus extra if you can.

Apply Yogurt to the Irritated Area to Treat Vaginitas Naturally

Apply yogurt directly to the irritated area if yeast is the cause of your vaginitas. Yogurt will work directly on your skin to help balance the yeast. Use plain yogurt. You can apply it cold or let it warm to room temperature naturally before you apply it.

Use a Cold Compress on the Irritated Area to Treat Vaginitas Naturally

Relieve the symptoms of vaginitas by using a cold compress or ice cubes wrapped in a wash cloth. Use as often as needed.

Change Soap or Laundry Detergent to Treat Vaginitas Naturally

If an allergy to soap or laundry detergent is the cause of your vaginitas, stop using it or wash your clothes in a second wash cycle in water only. You may also want to stop using dryer sheets, bleach and stain removers until you can find the source of your irritation. Buy a soap free cleanser from the drugstore for washing.

If you treat vaginitas naturally at home and your symptoms persist, you should see a doctor to see if you have a more serious infection that needs to be treated with an antibiotic or other prescription medication or over the counter remedy.
