Repeated fungal infections can affect fertility, or make you infertile
21-year-old woman
I've had vaginal mycoses for several months now, and I wonder if this will have an impact on my fertility.

Hello,
You can be reassured, recurrent mycoses have no impact on fertility.
What kind of treatment do you usually use to treat them?
21-year-old woman · 3 years ago
Thank you for your answer, it reassures me, as a general rule I use antifungal creams and sometimes ova, however I was recently put on an oral treatment of probiotics for 3 months. I am only at my first month of treatment but I still had a mycosis (less strong than usual though)

I agree. There are indeed preventive treatments such as probiotics. There is also 1 capsule to be taken once a week as a preventive treatment that can significantly help reduce the number of vaginal mycoses, but this must be prescribed by the doctor

Okay, thanks, I'll talk to my doctor about it
However I have another question, is it normal to have "cuts" in the areas where mycoses are frequent (because of the ttt or because the skin is too often damaged)?

Yes, this can happen from time to time. Applying Canesten cream twice a day for about ten days can help heal these lesions
