You need to soak your bras in a white vinegar and water solution of 1:1. Washing bras does not kill out the yeast, therfore you keep re-infecting yourself with yeast. White vinegar kills the yeast. This and using monistat has helped me more then anything. I use a gallon ziplock bag with 1-1/2 cups of vinegar and the same for the water and let your bras soak in this for 1 hour at least. Then wash as usual. Be sure to use white vinegar. Apple cider vinegar has yeast in it and the problem will get worse.

I had the same problem recently and got it under the breast area, armpit area, inner thighs. My doctor said her brother has it and uses Goldbond cream and powder. I was perscribed Ketoconazole 2% cream and it went away in a few days. If i feel an itchy spot coming on, I immediately put a dab of the cream on, and it goes away.

Good luck,
