I asked this question & got back so much helpful info…thank you so much!!!!!
What I am currently doing:
Im wearing only cotton loose clothing
no soaps or baths
very low carb diet….no sugar
treating with the pill & a cream each time & then a healing cream after wards called premarin
i have been checked for bacteria
i have been checked for diabetes
everytime i go there is only high yeast and no explanation
I go back on tuesday and we have to find an answer because I am starting to be very depressed over this matter. It has made my life the last year very uncomfortable and I have lost 20 pounds because I have cut out all the sugar & a lot of my carbs
the only thing left to do is:
take me off the birth control…we have tried every kind there is-does anyone have any suggestion on this? do you know of some type of birth control that has worked for you?
check my boyfriend? or treat him..does anyone know the proc or how they do this? he is really worried
thank u so much

I’ve only had one yeast infection before and it was while taking an antibiotic known to cause them. I eat a lot of sugar all the time and don’t get yeast infections, so I don’t know what causes them…. Wait for the doctor, I guess. I feel bad for you coz that is painful and uncomfortable.
If you boyfriend has not been treated please have him see a doc as he may be harboring the bacteria and passing it on to you back and forth. Also be sure you are eating plenty of yogurt with live active cultures or taking acidophillus capsules daily to help prevent yeast infections.
Its much more simple than all of that.. .. you dont need to do all that.
There is a product called OXYDROPS. Or Oxygen Drops. Go on line and buy some.. Follow the instructions. Its a NATURAL product that kills yeast. Its anti yeast, anti bacterial… I have not had one sinse I started drinking it. Further, I have not had bladder infection or urinary tract infection.
You just put like 8-10 drops in your bottle of water….. I’m tellin you……its amazing. It has really changed my life!!! Especially when I have no insurance. I literally was peeing blood starting driking it and 12 hrs later the blood was gone!! Dr said NO trace of blood in my urine. Of course, Dr’s dont want you to know you can care for yourself without a prescription. Guess what!!! you CAN.
eat yogurt.. your boyfriend should be checked.. and also thongs (even if they are cotton) can cause them. douching too much can also cause them
what also helps.. naturally.. is taking a clove of garlic wrapping in gauze and inserting it like a depository. for some reason the garlic helps infection inside. okay im going to be honest the smell is not pleasant and you should do it on a weekend and do not make any plans. but it helps.
Keep doing what you’re doing, but add Probiotics, especially when and if you’re taking antibiotics. You can find probiotics in pill or powder form in any health food store or places like The Vitamin Shoppe. You get a yeast infection when these "good bacteria" are killed off, leaving an environment for yeast to run rampant. Probiotics are also found in yogurt containing live cultures. (Yeast thrive on sugar and high/processed carbohydrates, and warm moist areas. That’s why the cotton underwear and low carb diet are recommended.)
You and him both should take the Alka-Seltzer original. It can’t hurt him either. I know that you have asked this question many times already. I also know how the infection can’t get to your last nerve to say the least. Been there done that. So go to the store and get you some Alka-Seltzer original. Follow the directions on the package. You and him both take it like it says to and see if that don’t end your problem. I wouldn’t keep on telling you this over and over if I didn’t believe in this stuff myself. But honey it works so good that it is unreal. Once you do this, please email me back and let me know the out come of it. I am serious about you taking it. I will stake my life on it, it works that good.
Get your boyfriend to get checked for PID ( Pelvic Inflammitory Disease) this occurs when you have intercourse while you currently are having a yeast infection. You all could be passing the infection back and forth and he could be showing no sign of infection. His Doctor will swab the penis and deside whether he needs a course of antibiotics or to drink this fruity drink. After tratment for both of you no sex for 7-9 days. Good luck…
A friend of mine was having the same problem and went to a women’s health facility and they told her to use only white unscented soaps to bathe with…the dyes and perfumes can cause infections …..she hasn’t had the problem any more.
