A member asked:

I am a 20 year old female and i have continuous yeast infections, one week i have one then i don't for a few days then i do for a week what can cause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

may not be yeast: Not all discharge is yeast. Have you been examined and that is what is diagnosed? There are other treatments besides Monistat 1 (tioconazole) that may help if it is yeast.
