How long does it take to get rid of a yeast infection?
The length of a yeast infection depends on what caused the infection in the first place. Over the counter treatments generally start working in as little as one day, but can take up to one week in some cases. Some can be cured within a week to ten days. If it's caused by poor eating habits, it can continue until you change the way you eat. Thanks!

The most reliable treatments will get rid of a yeast infection in 3 days. One-day treatments do work, but are less reliable.

About Yeast Infection
A yeast infection is a fungal infection caused by any of the candida species of yeast. The infections are usually minor.

Yeast infections cause local inflammation and discomfort, itching. burning, soreness, and sometimes a grayish cottage cheese like discharge is present. Male yeast infections are possible but uncommon.
About Over The Counter
Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines are those drugs that you can legally buy without a doctor’s prescription. Some over-the-counter medicines relieve aches, pains and skin irritations. Some prevent or cure diseases, like tooth decay and athlete's foot. Other over-the-counter drugs can help manage recurring problems, like migraines.
