Question: Tell me, please, whether there can be any selection when using candles Atsilakt"? For the treatment of thrush used the Clotrimazole, then appointed "Atsilakt" and again came a strange selection.

To prescribe drugs should doctor, from prescription candidiasis, the frequency of relapses and sensitivity to antifungal drugs depends on the duration of the course and the choice of tools. A bit unclear why You were assigned Atsilakt, was achieved eradication of fungi of the genus Candida, whether the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis, unfortunately, is unknown.

Typically, such candles on the background of vulvovaginal candidiasis is not indicated, as in the acidic vaginal environment (optimal for Candida pH=5) creates a prerequisite for active reproduction of yeast. Therefore, check with your doctor the reason for the appointment of this drug (vaginal dysbiosis???).
