I don't know : You need to have a vaginal exam to identify the reason for the redness.

Time for an exam!: You need an absolute diagnosis, an examination of the vaginal fluid and cultures! You may require oral medication to solve your problem. Hope this helps Good luck Dr Z

Probably: You definitely shouldn't need to use your current meds any longer. If you still have symptoms either this is a resistant yeast or you have something else going on. If either of these is the case you need to see your doctor.
