I am on HBC (mircette). Last week I had my period. I just finished a round of antibiotics, which of course has left me with a raging yeast infection. I took a difflucan, have been taking accidopholus capsules, and am using a three day dose of monistat at night. Yet the YI persists, and doesn't seem to feel like it is getting any better.
I was wondering: my period always seems to help clear up YI's. Is it ok to stop my active pills again and have another period, even though I just started a new BC pack a week ago? I know it compromises my pregnancy prevention, so I will use backup. Would a body let you have a period so soon after the last one?
