A member asked:

Should constant yeast infections worry me? everytime i have sex with my boyfriend i seem to get a yeast infection. i have used the yeast infection kits that help get rid of the infection but they come back.

Chronic Yeast : Diabetes and abnormal glucose tolerance or Insulin resistance are major risk factors for recurrent yeast infections. Oral contraceptives are also a risk factor. Patients infected with HIV are only at risk if their CD4 counts are less than 100. Chronic antibiotic therapy can also be a risk factor for recurrent yeast infections. See your doctor for help.
