Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
the symptoms you describe may not be caused by yeast infection alone and recurrence on yeast treatment suggest a different cause or treatment not well administered. There are many medical conditions that can give you that presentation most of which are infectious( Viral, bacterial, parasitic/mycotic).You will need to be examined by a Doctor and STI work-ups like syphilis test, HPV and herpes test, a vaginal swap test will be needed.Your treatment will depend on the results of your tests.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
