BC pill and yeast infection Posted: 06-24-08 07:57am
I started on tri cyclen lo two months ago,
within 2 days of starting I got a yeast
infection. I took two treatments of over
the counter meds and thought I was cured.
However this month after getting my period
and starting again on the pill I think I
again getting an yeast infection, I have
some itching and redness and pain when
having sex.
Is this going to continue every month??
is there another pill that I should try or
a different hormonal BC method? I hate
condoms and my husband doesn´t care for
them either.

I'd definitely talk to a doctor about it.
It might be that if you switch, it will
get better. Hormonal changes can cause
yeast infections at times.
