Overcleaning?: You say you 'clean well'. Makes me wonder if you are overcleaning. We all have yeast and bacteria in our vaginas and genital area. They act to keep each other in check. If you overclean and get rid of too much of the normal bacteria down there, the yeast can go to town. That's why you are more prone to yeast infections when you take antibiotics . You need to talk to OB about the right mix of care.
