A member asked:

What is the best cure for the candida in vagina?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: The best treatment is the right one for you, and is an antimicrobial to which your candida is sensitive. The first line is either intravaginal tioconazole (i.e. Monistat) or oral fluconazole (i.e. Diflucan).
