If you are taking an antibiotic you may end up getting a yeast infection since along with the "bad" bacteria an antibiotic eliminates, it also attacks much of our "good" bacteria, which makes it easier for a vaginal yeast infection to develop. Adding beneficial bacteria ( also known as probiotics - like Lactobacillius acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum) will improve the intestinal flora, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, promote better digestion & increase resistance to illness. These supplements can be found at health food stores and are easy to take and can be surprisingly tasty if you choose the fruit-flavored chewable wafers!
