A member asked:
Frequent yeast infections on skin. how can i prevent? are feminine deodorant sprays safe/helpful? okay to use under breasts? vaginal/thigh area?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Use topicals: Use topical medications designed for this. Feminine sprays won't do the trick. Should use Nystatin powder or cream or an equivalent - ask your pharmacist.
