What Is The Treatment For Yeast Infection?

I have constantly had issues with yeast infections and BV. My Dr. always prescribes me flagyl which works, but it always comes back within 2 months. I ve been tested for HIV and diabetes. Is it possible that this is coming from my partner? I am also having a discharge which kinda looks like wet toilet paper, itching, no odor. Is this a yeast infection or BV, I honestly don t know the difference anymore.

Hello,
Welcome to HCM.
It mostly due to yeast infections.
It may be due to associated with diabetes, HIV, low body immunity etc.
Please get these tests done once again from other lab.
It may be due to your infected partner.
Please avoid sex with multiple partners.
Wear cotton inners only.
Maintain proper hygiene with soap at bath time.
Please consult your doctor for treatment of both the partner.
Avoid sex for few days or use condoms.
Drink plenty of fluids.
Tablet fluconazole or ketoconazole are best for that.
Hope it will be fine.
