Yogurt + probiotics: There is no way to get rid of it for good. You can help prevent it by eating yogurt and taking probiotics, but this is one of those things that tends to come up occasionally. The reason is that it's caused by normal fungus that lives on our skin.

Treat intestines!: Recurrent vaginal yeast is usually caused by yeast overgrowth in our intestines, known as intestinal candidiasis, a common side effect of antibiotics & hormones including birth control pills. This is treated with a low starch diet, probiotics & antifungal drugs or herbs. See http://huff.to/15mbzAO & http://bit.ly/1aEoabl A holistic or integrative physician can help guide your treatment.
