Recurrent Thrush: More Than Just an Annoyance

If you’re a woman and you’ve ever had a course of antibiotics, it’s likely you’ve experienced thrush. But the reality is, there are many causes, and it can be debilitating when it becomes recurrent.

Why Conventional Treatments Fail

Conventional vaginal creams and oral thrush pills relieve symptoms for a short time, but they fail to treat the underlying cause of VAGINAL DYSBIOSIS.

Thrush and Your Menstrual Cycle

🌸 You might also find a menstrual cycle pattern to your thrush flare-ups, where at certain points in your cycle, you keep getting thrush.

Vaginal Microbiome Testing: Understanding the Root Cause

🌸 In clinic, we can do vaginal microbiome testing to see which species of bacteria are out of balance with the high Candida albicans fungal pathogen.

Comprehensive Treatment Approach

We treat it with:

  • Herbal anti-fungals (used vaginally and/or orally)
  • Probiotic therapy specific to vaginal microflora
  • Hormonal balancing based on cycle patterns
  • Lifestyle changes, including using natural washes for both partners
  • Diet adjustments, such as cutting back processed sugars and alcohol
  • Specialized creams with herbal liquids like Pau D’arco, Pomegranate, specific probiotics, and lactulose
