Hello all. I've been having a recurring yeast infection, according to clinic doctors. I keep being prescribed an anti-fungal, it goes away for a while, then comes back. It seems to come back after...stimulation.

I've been using Curel as lubrication during foreplay with my girlfriend or otherwise self-stimulation. I'm wondering if stimulation and the Curel is something that could be causing the recurring infection?

I am starting to become very depressed about this, my sex life is struggling, and I feel like I can't even self stimulate without it furthering the situation.

I really hope someone has some insight.
