Yeast And Bacteria Infection Posted: 03-22-04 13:07pm
I am a 29yr female who has had her share
of yeast and bacteria infection. I have
had the same partner for 8yrs and we have
been married almost a year but everytime
his penis touches the outside of my vagina
even without penatrating it, I would get
irritated meaning no itching or burning,
it would just be an uncomfortable feeling
which would sometime cause my legs and
head to hurt. I also notice that I get
these yeast infections when I have
indigestion really bad. I am taking
nexium for acid reflux. I have seen seven
or eight obygn and everybody is clueless
to what might be causing all these
infections. I only use dove soap, I don't
use bubble bath, I wear cotton brief
cotton underwear. My husband and I use
the ky jelly because my body produce
little moisture. I have had my birth
control changed because that was thought
to be a factor. I have std's, hiv, and
fasting glucose test done numerous time
which have all been negative. My husband
and I have had intercourse about every
four months because of this situation. I
think I have taken more diflucan and
metronitazol than the law allows. If we
have intercourse a couple days later I end
up being irritated and start having a
discharge. We both have taking the
diflucan together in case he had a yeast
infection and still the next time we had
intercourse, I got another infection. At
this current time I take a 200mg of
diflucan every friday for 8 weeks to see
if that works. Could you please help me
or give me some insight to why I keep
getting these yeast and bacteria infection
even if his penis brushes up against the
outside of my vagina without intercourse
and when we do have intercourse.

Homeopathic system of medicine has a good
remedy to get you rid of the bacterial and
yeast infections. It seems to be
transmitted everytime you are attempting
an intercourse. It seems to be remaining
dormant in your husband and that is why he
is not having any symptoms. Some
remedies like ac. Nitric and kreosote(
homeopathic medicines) can help you get
rid of this recurrent infections. Your
husband needs to be treated
simultaneously.

Do you let him ejaculate in you? I know
this is a very personal question, but
every time I let my boyfriend do that, I
get an infection. My body does not like
his fluid in me, at all. And he doesn't
have any std's or an infection himself, my
body just rejects it. Also, dove gives
me infections. You may want to use an
antibacterial soap like dial, the yellow
bar. If you use tampons, change them at
least every three hours. Are your cotton
underwear white? Some women cannot wear
the colored ones because of infection.
Also, drink lots of water and stay away
from caffeine. The only thing I can tell
you is to use condoms, without spermicide
or lube, use ky and see if that helps at
all. Of course, the doctor above I am
sure knows more about what he is talking
about, so listen to him first, but as a
fellow infection sufferer, that is the
only advice I have. Let me know if
anything works for you!
