Tippler, what are gyno-pevaryl ovules? Never heard of those before. I'm beginning to think that I'm "just sensitive" too, like your gyno said about you. Dammit, as if I'm not sensitive enough in general, now I have to add vaginal infections to my list of "issues." :P
About the condom thing... if ShaniFaye is right about her man reinfecting her at the end of her treatment, then the condom usage could be a very good idea. Personally my bf and I use condoms every time now, even though I've been on the patch for about a year. I've heard that some people absolutely hate condoms and others just see them as a minor annoyance... are you sensitive to the latex or are there other reasons why you dislike them?
And to everyone else: do you ever get "cuts" in your vulvar area (in the folds, cracks, etc) during an infection? I've gotten two in the last few days. I heard someone else talk about "fissures" being related to yeast infections, but am wondering if anyone else knows about this or has experienced it. I just want it all to stop!!!
