How to Deal with Chronic Yeast Infections
This week I talk about vaginal yeast infections in a clear, supportive way. I walk through the most common symptoms, how I diagnose yeast infections in my practice, and the treatment options that actually work. I also explain what can trigger them—like antibiotics or diabetes—and why trying to self‑diagnose or relying on over‑the‑counter treatments without confirming the cause can lead to repeat infections.
I share practical tips to help prevent yeast infections, outline treatment plans for women who deal with them regularly, and highlight when it’s important to reach out to a healthcare professional. My goal is to help you feel informed, confident, and in control of your health.
