What Causes Recurring Yeast Infection Despite Taking Monistat?

I have had a yeast infection off and on for a few years now from taking antibiotics. I m thinking about doing a candida cleanse diet and take a candida support supplement and a probiotic. I was just wondering if you could tell me how to do this diet, the supplements, and the probiotics. Or maybe suggest something better. I went to a gynecologist about it once and the medication did nothing, and same with monistat.

Hello,

You have to get a vaginal swab to isolate and detect the organism causing the infection. Alternatives like clotrimazole can be tried.

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

Take care
