    You probably have a yeast infection in your vagina which needs to be treated properly. You need to see a doctor to get something for it. I think you can get topical and orally taken medication to clear it up. That's why it is recurring; it has nothing to do with your partner/s because the issue is actually you.

      I've gone to the doctor several times for it when it reoccurs. I got the treatment and fixed it. Then as soon as I get it in it comes back. I know it's not my partner because I've had different ones. I just wish it would go away and stay away.

        Try taking probiotics like acidophilus. The bacteria naturally produce an acidic environment that minimize the yeast but of course...yeast are naturally occurring in the vagina. I assume you don't have any autoimmne diseases?

            Theyre sold over the counter..walmart or pharmacies..just ask a pharmacist. It's the same bacteria found in yogurt.

                Sorry just one more thing...you can try dipping a tampon in PLAIN yogurt and inserting for an hour or so...I was poor in college and couldn't afford the $20 for the OTC stuff ha! Anyway it worked and gets the bacteria in yogurt straight to the problem. Maybe try it as a last resort. I know it doesn't sound appealing
