Hello,

In spite of using creams/pills; still you are getting recurrent candida infections means either you are using wrong dosage or it is not candida infections.

In the query you didn't mention about the site of recurrent infections, (assuming in the vaginal area, is it correct). Vaginal candidiasis causes excessive milky white discharge.

My suggestion is please meet gynecologist for your problem and for good treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Siddartha
