Hi Dear,
repeated candida infection requires proper treatment inform of both oral as well as local medication.
If despite proper treatment still you are suffering from infection than perhaps the cause is not candida but some other organism or may be mixed infection which requires a separate treatment
Use of detol will not cause any improvement in your symptoms.
Consult your gynae and get full examination and treatment
