Resistant yeast?: A few percent of vaginal yeast infections are caused by yeasts resistant to the usual treatments with "azole" drugs (miconazole, clotrimazole, fluconazole, etc). Or maybe you have something other than yeast. It's time to see a doctor for professional diagnosis and perhaps a prescription for non-azole treatment. Good luck!
