How Can Yeast Infections, After Becoming Sexually Active, Be Prevented?

I have been getting yeast infections monthly ever since I started to become sexually active. Monistat 7 helped clear it up and I started taking probiotics but after I stopped taking them they continued again. It sucks, what can I do to prevent this from happening?

Hi, I think you should use a condom during intercourse. It can prevent the infection. Also, take a prolonged antifungal treatment. Talk to your doctor regarding this.
