hi, I have gotten many yeast infections in the last year it seems,, more then ever. I'm not sure if I have one now. I have a heavy white discharge, but no itching and no burning. I have also tested negative for STDs. can anyone help on this? could it still be a yeast infection? this happens almost after every period of mine.

    Some women say that their thrush is the worst when they have their period, or shortly after. This is believed to be related to the change of the pH value within the vaginal cells during menstruation. I'm not sure how you solve that. I solved my recurrent and persistent thrush by changing my diet and taking lots of natural anti- thrush suppliments.

      yes. it is due to the hormone levels. i kept a chart of my recurrent yeast infection and it occurred after my period or after sex.
