Thrush for nearly three months

I can go six months with no issues and then if I get it, that's it for months. I've now taken three oral tablets, used natural treatment of multi-gyn twice and used one gyno-daktarin pessary to try and get rid of it. All of the above ease symbols but never quite go.

If I eat any sugar it creates a pretty much instant itch down below and this includes fruit too. So I've tried to cut as much out as possible. I've been to doctors in past who basically just tell me to live with it.

Please any alternative ideas? I have been tested for diabetes about a year ago and was clear.

@girlfriend44 Were you getting it every month? I seem to get it every month before a period. What were you using to treat it? Weird but good that it randomly went away - I've heard for some people coming off/changing their contraceptive pill has helped or even having a baby!

Yes nearly every month round a period. Don't know why it went. I didn't have a baby or come off the pill. Never found out why it just went. It's a nightmare isn't it.

Has anyone ever suggested Lichen Sclerosus?
