Dr. John Feola answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

RECURRENT YEAST: Recurrent Yeast infections. You need a follow up exam/labs/vaginal swab and culture. You may want to get a second GYN consult. Especially get screened for Diabetes, which can cause recurrent infections due to elevated glucose.
