What Causes Recurring Yeast Infection Along With Bad Odour?

Hi, I ve been having yeast infections symptoms for years now. I ve tried almost every type of yeast infection medications and it still seems to be there. Like if it goes away, 2 or 3 days after its back. Also whenever I sweat down there it smells like green armpit. I m getting really frustrated. I don t know what to do. Please help me....

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and welcome.

The aim would be to avoid leaving the region moist and keeping it dry and clean at all times.If you live in a warm country or one which has tropical or sub-tropical climate then you may find it difficult due the heat and sweating.

Use talcum powders if need be between your thighs, avoid wearing tight clothes, change your inner wear at least twice a day (carry a clean and dry extra with you always), take a shower at least once a day and dry your delicates well enough after the shower, wash and dry your delicates with water after each time you pass urine or pass your bowels, do not share clothes, stay in a cool and well ventilated room at all times, make sure you wash and dry after sexual contact, etc

Along with this use anti-fungal medications orally and a topical cream. Also get your urine culture done to make sure we are dealing with a fungal infection and not anything else.

Best wishes.
