A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bummer: Sometimes yeast infections can be difficult to treat. I recommend you speak with your doctor about options. Sometimes women take weekly Diflucan (fluconazole) for about 6 weeks. Some women try gentian violet. Elimination diets sometimes help as well. A great book on the subject is "the v book" by elizabeth stewart, can find used on amazon. She has excellent description of refractory yeast infection.
