Not complicated: Most yeast is easily treated with non-prescription creams (monistat, gynelotrimin (clotrimazole) or generics) available at all pharmacies. If the yeast comes back often, you may need more treatment from a provider. If the yeast follows a precription for antibiotics, be sure to ask for yeast medicine in the future if you need to take antibiotics.
