r/Candida

I sincerely ask everyone to help me. How to deal with candida biofilms? What supplements do you use?

Our functional medicine here is far lagging behind and there is no specialized functional doctor to guide us. I can only seek help online. This is because of the excessive intravenous administration of antibiotics here, I got SIFO. Unfortunately, by the time I discovered it, the biofilm was very thick and very tricky to handle.

My biofilm is not an easily manageable polysaccharide matrix. I don't know how to deal with it. NAC, Interfase Plus, the enzymes are no longer effective. Eating these will also irritate and provoke the Candida to release more toxins. Only when I eat cinnamon essential oil, thyme essential oil, monolaurin and undecylenic

acid, will I excrete something that is shiny and thick. I still can’t excrete the thick biofilms. The biofilm is mainly composed of hydrophobic layers and lipid layers. The thick and heavy hydrophobic layers of the biofilm are blocking my sterilization. What should I do? How to remove these thick biofilms?

Seeking for guidance.

Thanks!

I had been dealing with candidiasis for three months, I was prescribed a lot of treatments, but it always came back. I tried a new gynecologist, she sent me tests to make a better diagnosis, and I already have a 10-day treatment.

My question is whether weed can affect that treatment. I quit alcohol, sex, pool, coffee, sweet but I would like to have something that entertains me, could it be weed? Or should I cut it completely? :(

Since February, I started seeing a guy and having sex with him, and I’m still seeing the same person. The problem is that every time I have sex with him, a few days later I get a yeast infection (candida).

I’ve already seen a doctor and was prescribed fluconazole (two doses), but honestly it didn’t really work for me. Antifungal creams don’t seem to work anymore either. I recently went to another doctor and was prescribed terconazole, but I’m starting to feel really desperate because this has happened about five times since February.

I was drinking kefir and it helped a little, but it doesn’t completely get rid of it. It always comes back after I have sex. Sometimes we use condoms and sometimes we don’t.

Does anyone have any advice or know what could help? I would really appreciate any suggestions. I’m honestly getting desperate.

I have been having recurring yeast infections coupled with BV here and there since July 2025….it comes around once every 3-4 weeks and is seriously impacting my relationship and my day to day life. I am absolutely depressed over it.

Tried everything - probiotics(with L Crispatus), fermented foods, endless bouts of Fluconazole, pessaries, and recently…I thought Boric Acid did the trick to help, but it’s come back in full swing again.

I saw one male gyno who told me to eat yoghurt, cut alcohol and try see an acupuncturist?? He wasn’t much help.

PLS provide recommendation for any gynaecologist in Sydney who helped you with recurring thrush OR is an expert in this area.
