I keep a small tube of Vagistat-3 cream in my bathroom drawer and use as much as I need to. When I feel one coming on I just apply that and not only is it soothing but the itch and irritation is gone by morning

1000 % sure he is reinfecting you so both of you needs to be treated at the same time and rest for two weeks after treatment. Drink Cranberry juice and stay away from sugars because yeast loves sugar.

Yes I noticed that as well he can't ejaculate inside of me or it will irritate me. I'm so frustrated because I want to be with him but I know the outcome.

I noticed I only got a yeast infection while pregnant when me and my husband had sex and I let him *** inside me.  Since then i make him pull out.  Since then no problems.

If you have either infection you cannot have sex while on meds or while it's in the process of going away. It had to be 100% gone. If you are, your partner is re-infecting you.  It's a must that you abstain from sex for a certain amount of time. Also after sex care is really important. I am a very clean person and can tend to over clean myself down there which causes yeast infections.  Try using a pH balanced soap like summers eve or vagasil wash, it also helps if your partner uses these soaps too. I haven't had any infections this time around in my 2nd pregnancy due to the information I'm providing. I hope this helps! ♡ :) good luck!

Sometimes your partner can have it to from you and you get treated but he doesn't so when you have sex you get it again. My mom is diabetic and would get them a lot until the doctor said my dad should probably be treated also, if worked.

Yes girl! Yeast and UTI both exacerbated by sex! I'm so much more sensitive now!  Symptoms are also more intense than ever before. I described it like a fire from hell
