Is there a link between the pill, and my recurrent yeast infection problem?
Birth control is one of the most common causes of recurring yeast infection. Some women have reported that their recurring yeast infection has gotten better after discontinuation of the pill. Another cause of recurring yeast infection is food, especially sugars and sweet treats. If the level of these sugars are not controlled well and allowed to get high, you will likely experience recurring yeast infection. Moisture trapped around the vagina can also be the cause of recurring yeast infection. One of the last causes of recurring yeast infection is a change in the immune system. Women who have HIV are also at risk for recurring yeast infection.
