Hello M3ly222,
Thanks for posting your query.
We can understand your stress related to the problem which is disturbing your day today life. Candidal / Yeast infection are sometimes very hardy to be treated. This can be due to antibiotic resistance also.
Now to treat your problem is to take latest antifungal oral drug ( in my choice is -ITRACONAZOLE). Along with it you should add sertaconazole pessaries under medical supervision with prior antifungal sensitivity test.
You should do vaginal douches two times with saline water mixed with gentian violet paint ( 1:1000) for 10-15 minutes daily ( this is a simple method where you take bath tub half filled with luke warm water and add pinch of salt and few drops of gentian violet paint). If you are sexually active then use condoms strictly during every sexual act.
Hope to give you the best advice do give us the follow up,
With best health wishes,
Dr Sanjay K Kanodia.

Hi there ~
Using over the counter anti-itch medications may help with your condition. If you have been adequately treated for infections and been examined by a gynecologist, I suggest that you take yourself to a psychiatrist who can help with your itching and burning sensation as there are a lot of medications that are effective. I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
