Get Fungal Infection. Having Pain And Itchiness. Applying Candid-B. Infection Recurring. Solution?

I am keep getting fungal infection from last 4-5 years.. not very painful,, but bit itchy occasionally. I have been applying Candid-B ( clotrimazole + beclomethasone ) and it recovers in 2-3 days. It started after having sex first time and after seeing skin doctor, I was given some medication and CandidB cream that solved the problem, but I keep getting that fungal infection everymonth even didn't had any sex during that period. I even monitored that over period of 4-5 months without having sex and it keep recurring.

What it could be and how to get cured completely ?

Hi,
It seems that you are having chronic fungal infection locally.
Apply only plane Candid cream.
Avoid steroid combination cream.
Take oral anti-fungal tablet like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
Important is this that keep your local hygiene clean, dry and airy.
Wash local part with running water daily while taking bath and keep dry afterwards.
During period take more care of local hygiene.
Ok and take care.
