How To Get Rid Of My Yeast Infection?
Hey, I am currently a 21 year old student studying for Registerd Nurse. About three months ago I had sex and then soon afterwards I received a yeast infection. I went to the doctor and they gave me meds. Here three months later and this yeast infection is back and my groin is sore. Can you give me any advice?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
The history and symptoms suggests me that you are having fungal infection and these infection are more in the genitals as these are the normal comensals of the genitals.
As you are getting these infections frequently I would suggest you to follow
1.Keep the area clean and dry
2.Apply antifungal cream over the affected area
3.Take Flucanazole tablet
4.Oral antihistamines to reduce the itching.
Thank you.
