How Can I Avoid Getting Another Yeast Infection?

To help prevent vaginal yeast infections, you can:

* avoid douches
* avoid scented hygiene products like bubble bath, sprays, pads, and tampons
* change tampons and pads often during your period
* avoid tight underwear or clothes made of synthetic fibers
* wear cotton underwear and pantyhose with a cotton crotch
* change out of wet swimsuits and exercise clothes as soon as you can

If you keep getting yeast infections, be sure and talk with your doctor.
