Yeast / Antibiotics: You were on some powerful antibiotics which killed not only the bad bacteria but also killed the good bacteria (lactobacilli) allowing the yeast to overgrow causing Vaginal itching or vulvovaginal candidiasis. The yeast were treated with Diflucan. You can take probiotics to replace the good bacteria in your colon, thus preventing future yeast infections. Yogurt is also helpful.
