    How to cure reoccurring yeast infection
    I have this reoccurring yeast infection that have only been curing using home remedies, which worked only to appear again. I have not gone to the gynae about it yet however I've bought Candizole Vaginal Cream and currently on day 4 treatment. Is it still worth going to the gynae? If so, can she/he detect something else I don't already know?

    If its recurring maybe you partner is carrying it and giving it back to you.

    Sort of like a game of hot potato where it gets passed back and forth. Yes a man can carry it and give it back to you without any obvious symptoms.

    Cream?
    I would try the various pill options offered by Monistat, which might be under different names outside of the US.
    Search them online.

    I had the same problem, I went to the doctor and they said its just another infection and give me more cream.
    After having this problem for months, I decided to look online to see if I had some other condition.
    Well, I found info that some people become septic with candida which lives in the intestines.
    Which is normal but, some people make to much candida and they have problems with infections.
    So, I did the candida diet to eliminated the fungus.
    After a few months the yeast infections went away.
    The only time I have problems is when I eat sugar, for sugar feeds the fungus.
    Look at your diet you may be feeding the fungus.
    I hope this helped.
    Also,eating yogurt helps a lot of ladies from having infections.
    Good luck

    If your doctor just continues giving you the cream and does not look for a reason for recurrence, find another doctor. For occasional recurrence, you know what it looks like; the cream is available OTC. Yoghurt is good, both eaten and applied topically. Eating it is a good preventative.
    It could also be that your little microbes are resistant; there are other meds.
