*sigh* Another Yeast Infection

This will be my 3rd one in 2 months. They gave me the difflucan first, it made me really sick with some stomach issues, but it did take the infection away. For 2 weeks. Then it came back. Then they had me try Monistat 3. Same deal- gone for 2 weeks and back again. Now they said do the 7 day Monistat. Which only comes in the cream and I'm sure is going to be a huge nasty mess. I am miserable that these keep coming back. I'm keeping clean, wearing loose clothes, eating a yogurt every day- but they keep coming back. I am at my wits end :(

    I was getting a lot of yeast infections before I was diagnosed with hypothyroid...haven't had one since being contorolled with meds. Developing hypothyroid is really common in pregnancy.

    I had my first one a couple weeks ago and had Diflucan which got rid of it but I think its starting to come back. Its miserable!!! I hate the creams so I hope that's not the next step.

    Thanks for the suggestions and commisseration everyone. I've been reading the online reviews and they say the 7 day is horrible, itchy and messy. I do not have the patience to deal with that right now. So I'm going to try the 3 day again. I had no prob
