Please go back to your doctor, they can give you a much longer treatment and/or another antifungal to try, good luck x

You need to sort out your system. A nutritionist can help you do that. This lady has helped me a lot and works on line world wide. Please take a look.

I assume that you are doing all the basics, cotton knickers, showering after sex etc? Try and work out what your triggers are. I find sex can be if it's been a while (hubby works away 🙄) and some foods.I found a crazy sounding solution years ago, tea tree oil. As soon as I feel it starting I put a couple of drops in the gusset of my knickers and it stops it developing. Obviously don't use too much and check you're not allergic etc. Also only a couple of drops as it can be a bit stingy and feel uncomfortable at first.
I realise it sounds odd and alternatives are not for everyone but it works for me and for my friends
Good luck x
Hope it helps. Xx
