Home Remedy 1 – Tea Tree Oil: Tea Tree oil is a natural antiseptic and has anti-fungal properties as well so it stands to reason that it has some success in lessening the symptoms of yeast infections and thrush. A moderate amount of tea tree oil can be added to some cotton wool or similar and then applied to the infected area.  For vaginal yeast infection the tea tree oil can also be added onto a tampon and then inserted into the vagina (changing it twice a day) to offer some relief.

Home Remedy 2 – Yogurt: Similar to tea tree oil above, yogurt can also have a beneficial remedial effect on thrush and for vaginal infections again it is the technique of adding yogurt to a tampon and inserting it into the vagina (changing it twice a day).  If  the symptoms are eliminated then continue with this remedy for another day anyway for extra effect.
