15. Tea Tree Oil Treats Yeast Infections
No one likes to talk about it, but many of us have suffered from vaginal yeast or bacterial infections which cause pain and itching. It’s about as unpleasant as it sounds. Tea tree oil is a natural antibiotic and antifungal that instantly soothes and relaxes your vagina. Mix the tea tree oil with a little jojoba oil, apply the solution to a tampon and insert it into your vagina for 30 minutes to an hour for three or four days until symptoms subside. You can also douche with a tablespoon of tea tree oil in ½ cup of warm water. Tea tree oil can cause allergic reactions, so if the pain and itching get worse, stop using it immediately.
