chronic yeast infections

[stressedtodeath]

Hello Dr,
Please help me.Im 26 yr old lady who is suffering from chronic vaginal yeast infection since 6 months. I have tried all flucanazole tablets, suppositories etc but i get temporary relief and it comes back! I am in monogamous relation since past 9 years and since 5 months I have abstained from sex but it still comes back.i have tested for other stds and diabetes but negative. I am highly stressed as i read that it could be 1st sign of HIV in women. I have never had any encounters except with my husband who is healthy. Im unable to live my life due to fear and am nearly suicidal. I used 2 get yeast infections in past but only 1-2 in a year. but this time it is chronic. I have to pee every 1 hour and the next day my vulva becomes red and i get the curdy discharge (all this seems to start right after periods and seems to last the entire mnth till next period ) I have had positive c albicans yeast cultures. I have tried yogurt, garlic, everything!!! please please tell me whats going on wiith my body? I am very very scared

UPDATE:
HI I FINALLY HAD THE COURAGE TO TEST FOR ALL STDS N IM NEGATIVE FOR ALL!!!! SO IT WASNT HIV CAUSING ALL OF THAT. I WASTED 1 YEAR IN DEPRESSION AND RUINED MY HEALTH FURTHER THINKING THAT I HAD HIV.MY ADVICE TO THOSE WHO ARE PARANOID LIKE ME ..PLEASE DO TESTING AS SOON AS U START HAVING CHRONIC SYMPROMS TO RULE OUT THE STDS SO U CAN START TREATING WHAT U HAVE INSTEAD OF BEING PARANOID OVER SOMETHING U DONT HAVE!! ALSO..I HIGHLYY RECOMMEND FEMDOPHILUS AS I CONSIDER IT TO BE MY SAVIOUR. IVE BEEN ON IT SINCE 2 MONTHS AND MY CHRONIC YEAST VAGINITIS HAS DISAPPEARED!! KNOCK ON WOOD!! ALL D BEST TO ALL!! GOD BLESS! :)

The only way to know your status is by testing.

[stressedtodeath]

Repeat infections that occur immediately following treatment, or a persistent yeast infection that does not respond to treatment, may be the first or, at least, an early sign that an individual is infected with HIV.

if you havent had unprotected sex with someone who has hiv OR shared iv drug works...then you dont have a hiv concern.

continue to work with your dr...
