	Answer by Dr Rowena S, MD (doctor) on Wed 03, Jun 2009 05:01pm: Hi, Recurrent yeast infection needs to be evaluated further by your gynecologist for proper management. Some women with weakened immune systems or those with unmanaged diabetes are more at risk for recurrent yeast infection. It is important to reduce the risk factors associated with infection. Lifestyle modification and suppressive antifungal therapy may help. Talk to your gynecologist about this and the treatment suited for you. Take care and regards.
