Vaginal Candidiasis
I have been suffering from Vaginal Fungal infection since the past 4 to 5 months, (Symptoms being white curdy discharge, vaginal dryness and itching when aggravated). I have been prescribed Fluconazole, Clotrimazole and then Itraconazole as the infection is not receeding and keeps coming back. Currently I am taking Itraconazole 200 mg twice daily since the past 7 days and still having the issue of curdy dischrage (especially on the clitoral hood). The symptoms do not seem to go with whatever medication I take. Please advise what course to take.
