If Fluconazole didn’t work, does that mean it wasn’t a yeast infection? This is a question getting asked more often because Fluconazole is so easy to get hold of now, more women are using it when they want.
See your doctor first
Fluconazole is an oral anti fungal drug. This drug should not be used without the guidance of your doctor. Just because you can purchase it easily you must never put anti fungal drugs in your body until you are sure that you have a yeast infection. You can’t use it as a home test for your infection, and then if it doesn’t work you must have something else.
If you have another infection then you could have created a yeast infection by taking the drug when you didn’t have any fungus in your body.
Different strengthens of Fluconazole
Fluconazole comes in different strengths and you can purchase as many as you like online. Only your doctor will know what strength you must use and for how long. These drugs create resistant fungus when they are not used correctly, and then you’re in for a long ride of more drugs in an attempt to cure your infection caused by an aggressive fungus that is continually getting stronger.
Resistant yeast
Because the Candia yeast lives in your body naturally if you take something that kills fungus when you don’t have any fungus in your body, you will cause the yeast to mutate. This is an automatic self defense mechanism that yeast and fungi have to protect themselves. Once you cause the yeast to mutate with an anti fungal drug such as Fluconazole it will be resistant straight away.
Once the infection is resistant you will need a more powerful drug to kill it,and then this can go on until your doctor tells you that you’ll have to live with yeast infections for the rest of your life. Which has happened in the past when a doctor doesn’t understand that the drugs are what is making the infection worse.
Be safe when treating yeast or any other vaginal infection
Always see your doctor first for a correct diagnosis of any vaginal infection. These can lead to permanent damage to your reproductive organs if you get your self diagnosis wrong.
