YES!! antibiotics will definitely give you yeast infections.. the only antibiotic i can take is azithromycin (z-pac) im allergic to all the others.. ask your doctor what would be best for you to use to help clear it up!

Absolutely.  Start a regimen of probiotics asap.  Yogurt is good but make sure it has live organisms and buy a good probiotic at the health food store.  You'll need an insulated bag with ice packs to get it home alive.  Also topically you can apply a good jojoba lotion or buy the jock itch ointment from the drug store.   Hope your "candida" clears up.
