1168718 tn?1464983535 I usually get a yeast infection after a round of antibiotics because antibiotics tend to kill good bacteria as well as bad. That can be one culprit. Other culprits can be hormones, diabetes, the use of prednisone, the over use of douches..just to name a few. Excessive dryness down in the nether regions can cause problems as well. I'm guessing by your use of Premarin Cream is because your trying to prevent vaginal dryness due to estrogen loss.

Avatar f tn Hi there congratulations on getting past the 12 week mark. My advice is to avoid all sugar and if you can get your hands on sachromyces cerevisae boulardii taken 2-3 times daily plus probiotics double dose. Not sure which country you're in. in australia sachromyces comes in a couple of brands- "bioceuticals sb floractiv" "metagenics sb dysbiosis" are a couple of them.
Avatar f tn eating yogurt is helpful with yeast infections. Are you taking any antibiotics, perhaps for acne? They can cause yeast infections. Also oral sex can cause yeast infections if your partners mouth has a high population of yeast. The pH of your vagina may be off as well. Vagisil has an over the counter screening kit to test pH. If you have only tried over the counter stuff for your infections you need to go see a doctor to get it straightened out! Good luck!

Also can it do damage to your baby?
Avatar f tn **I get yeast infections a lot from antibiotics because I also get strep throat a bunch. So, I know it's not an STD.
Avatar m tn "Healthy bacteria" are normally decomposing waste material from our skin, but the antibiotics kill them, so then yeast takes over. Yeast is not killed by antibiotics like bacteria is. Only antifungals kill yeast. So antibiotics commonly cause yeast infections, and this smegma problem you're having would make sense as a symptom of yeast infection. It should get better when you're done taking the antibiotics.
