Is it safe to do two courses of yeast infection treatments? This is a question often asked by the 7% of yeast infection sufferers who go on to suffer from recurrent yeast infections. While physically, there is no harm in completing two courses of a yeast infection treatment, you have to ask yourself, why hasn't the Candida treatment worked the first time?

Once you have treated your yeast infection, whether it was with a natural yeast infection cure or an over the counter Candida cure the yeast infection shouldn't come back. If your yeast infection does return the first thing you should do is go back and see your doctor. Your doctor will be able to rule out any health problems you might have that has caused your yeast infection to become recurrent.

Diabetes, and the more serious HIV/AIDS virus are two illnesses that can cause recurrent yeast infections. Once these and any other health problems are ruled out you can go about finding the cause of your recurrent yeast infection.

Another reason why a yeast infection returns for many women is, they didn't complete the first course of treatment. A small percentage of women do this because they either didn't listen to their doctor or read the documentation that came with the anti fungal treatment.

The symptoms will disappear a few days before your yeast infection is actually cured. When some women stop getting the symptoms they automatically assume that the yeast infection is cured, but this is not what has happened.

When you don't finish the course of treatment the Candida yeast causing the infection will become resistant to the medication you're using. This will cause your yeast infection to continually come back until you use a more powerful anti fungal treatment. This can lead you down the road of having recurrent/chronic yeast infections for years.

If you need to use two courses of yeast infection treatments there will be a reason for it. Always see your doctor before you start the second course. This rules out any health issues, and also guarantees that you have been treating a yeast infection with the first course of treatment.
