Yes, ive been on this cream on and off, but since it is a very strong steroid my dr suggested to quit using it. She made 2 suggestions about either using a topical estrogen cream or changing my birth control. I apply baby aquaphor when i seem too dry and be very careful. I think i have another yeast infection, which seems impossible, i dont take baths or been in any type of body of water, etc etc. I know things are connected, i just need to get ahold of someone really knowledgeable, and cares. Unfortunately i have to travel hours to see any sort of specialist. I just want to figure this out

Hi! The Clobetasol propoipinate is the only thing that has worked well for me. I was miserable before my Primary doctor prescribed it. You do have to be careful to not use more than couple times per week so it doesn’t thin the tissues. I My Gynecologist was prescribing me flucinonide but that just didn’t work well enough.
