Hi Andrew,
I am a lady with the exact same problem, and it is a bit consoling to
know that we (my b/f and i) are not the only ones with this problem. I
would advise you first and foremost to continue being very supportive of
your gal coz this situation can really stress someone out, and make the
situation even worse. Get her to test her sugar levels (diabetes), her
thyroid and also the soaps you both use to wash. I've been given the
same advice and intend to see my doc asap. I have been having this
problem for the whole of this year and we also go for months on end
without sex!!! in the meantime, get treated for yeast coz you may also
be re-infecting her. cheers.
