Just wondering if any girls keep getting it e.g. every 4/5 months? I take the pill/pessary each time and it keeps coming back. And I know for sure that I dont keep getting it back because of other people (always use contraception!)
How can i get rid of it for good ? :(

    are you on the pill?
    sometimes this can be the cause of thrush coming back over and over again

    Maybe it could be that you keep using scent bubble bath or something like that, that keeps making it come back.

    if you're getting repeated infections, you should see a doctor.

    :( Im not on the pill, dont use scented bubble baths and stuff cause i know that can have an effect and I went to the doctor and she just told me to keep taking pill/pessary which seems really stupid
    Think Im doomed for life!!!

    I got thrush after some excessive cleaning in that area. :o I wouldn't worry, it seems to happen a lot - my housemate even gets it after as little as having a long hot bath!

    Try Canestan Cream, available over the counter at Boots - it cleared up mine over night.
