Yes I also suffer from yeast. I have read in the "Endomeriosis Source Book" that women with endo usually will have candidiasis. This is common yeast infections, but inbed in the vagina. I don't recall the cure or med needed. Nexted time you visit you DR or call and ask about it. I found that book at the library. Hope this help you all.
