Drug Resistant Yeast Infections

Miconazole resistant yeast infections are easy to create, and more women are now finding this out all the time. They keep applying this anti fungal drug ( miconazole ) to the symptoms of their Candida overgrowth, and then the fungus in their vagina soon becomes resistant.

There’s one flaw in trying to cure a yeast infection with a vaginal anti fungal cream, and that is, the itching is just a symptom of fungal overgrowth. Just treating a symptom doesn’t work, you need to treat the infection from the cause. No infection has ever been cured by treating a symptom, but drug companies make millions every year telling you this is how you cure a yeast infection.

The yeast is not the problem when it comes to infections as this organism lives in all of us all of the time. The infections start when your body can’t keep the yeast under control anymore, and then it starts mutating into an aggressive fungus that starts feeding on your body. Your body’s natural defenses were keeping the yeast under control up until your were infected, and it’s your natural defenses that need to be repaired in order to cure your infection.

The yeast will grow in numbers when your body’s natural defenses have been compromised. This is when it will mutate into an infection causing fungus, and then your symptoms start. Fungi love a warm, moist place to breed in, and that is why the symptoms of a yeast infection are worse in the vagina.

Because you’re only experiencing itching in your vagina, that doesn’t mean that this is the only place on or in your body that the fungus has infected. If that was the case then the anti fungal cream would have worked first time. The fungal infection is also on the inside of your body in your intestines, because your body is allowing the yeast to mutate, and your intestines are the place where your body has the most yeast.

To cure your fungal infection you have to get your body’s natural defenses back to the strength they were at before so your body can stop the yeast from mutating. This is the only way you’ll remove the fungus from your body.
