Top Medical Research Studies

In our exploration of tea tree oil’s effectiveness against vaginal thrush, we found promising antifungal activity from both 5% and 10% concentrations. Using samples taken from pregnant women diagnosed with vulvovaginal candidiasis, we observed that nystatin outperformed tea tree oil in inhibiting Candida species.

While tea tree oil showed some potential, its effectiveness was significantly lower compared to nystatin. This suggests that while tea tree oil may contribute to treatment options, further studies are essential to determine the best concentrations for effective use during pregnancy.

Lifesaver for thrush
33 people found this helpful
An irreplaceable product in any home, I've known tea tree oil for a long time. I apply it on various rashes, scratches, and bites; use it in an aroma lamp when unwell; and do inhalations as it helps a lot. For thrush, I soak a tampon in coconut oil with a drop of tea tree oil and leave it overnight. I also use it for mouth rinsing, stomatitis, and for cleaning the floor, adding a couple of drops in water for disinfection. It’s an effective lifesaver and very economical!

Broad-spectrum action

Excellent natural oil and antiseptic! I apply it on a mask to combat viruses. It's great for gums and as a mouth rinse. This isn't my first order, and it has a broad spectrum of action! I use it for skin damages and even put it directly on sore gums or a tooth. It's also effective in thrush treatments with tampons. Great oil!

Natural antibiotic

I’m familiar with tea tree oil and won’t describe the theory, but I’ll say how I use it: I apply it on rashes, do inhalations, and open the bottle to breathe for a runny nose. For thrush, I prepare a tampon with coconut oil and one drop of tea tree oil overnight. It's antibacterial and antifungal, proving effective for many ailments, including ear infections. I wish everyone health!
