Hi and thanks for the query,

recurring yeast infections might either imply inadequate treatment or resistance of the particular drug to the germ in question. A culture and sensitivity tests for identified germs might be useful in detecting the exact germ in question specific antibiotic that can effectively tackle it.

Ovarian cysts might not actually have much in relation to the yeast infections. Night sweats occur in many chronic pathologies or infectious processes(TB, lymphomas) and a good clinical examination might be required. Thyroid function tests under these circumstances could be necessary. But other

Severe pains before periods is an important consideration if it actually stated later in life. this is a secondary dysmenorrhea and would require chronic infections like Chlamydia, Mycoplasma to be screened.

I recommend you book an appointment with a gynecologist.

best regards,
