(22,495 posts)12. I used to get yeast infections all the time when I was young
Kept going to my doctor and getting the creams which cleared it up until I got another one. I was in between jobs and didn't have medical insurance for 3 months. A friend suggested I go to PP, they examined me asked aboutmy diet and told I was eating too much sugar and that is why I had so many yeast infections. My regular doctor at kaiser never made the connection. I cut down my sugar intake and the yeast infections went away. I will defend PP forever!
