vaginapagina | Chronic yeast? (Reply)

Okay, there is something weird wrong with me. It's almost like a chronic yeast (?) infection that I've had for years. I've been checked up twice and both times the doctors said it was yeast, but none of the treatments worked. I took this one time pill thing for it, it went away for a few days and just came back again. I'm not diabetic, either. There isn't really an unusual discharge as far as I can tell, either. It just itches a lot at least a couple days a week, sometimes swells up a bit. I'm going to go back tomorrow to see if it is even yeast or something else and to see what can be causing it. It's really bothering me because it doesn't go away for long enough and I can't really have sex because it is too painful...

I've even stopped using scented soaps and detergents and only wear cotton underwear. I've cut out a lot of refined sugars & tend to just eat fruits if I want something sweet.
