Hello.

I was wondering if there was anyone out there who could tell Me if they beat/managed to control candida, while not giving up birth control. (Levlen in My case.)

I just need to know if it is possible.

I have been battling a candida fight for years, get infections all the time, and, I'll keep fighting, but, have to know if I can even win, if I am on bc.

Now I know I should quit, I am all for natural things, so, I do even want to be on it, but, please do not tell Me just to quit, because I can't.

I have such painful periods that I can not even move, and, can not go back to having them once a month, I'd rather die, which is why I am on them in the first place, for pain management, and to keep them away as long as possible, not for sex, like most people use them for not to get pregnant.

So, please do not tell Me I should quit, I know it would be better for Me in the long run, and I could beat this easier, but, I can't. Like I said, I would rather die then feel that pain and emotional anguish every month. (And I have tried every natural remedy for it, none work, only bc, so I only have to feel it every few months. When I would rather never feel it again.)

I am just asking if there is anyone out there who has beat/managed candida on bc, or just knows of people who have done it, or if it can even be done.

I really hope there are, and it is possible, because, if not, well, I am stuck between a rock and a hard place, because, with all the infections I get, and how shitty I feel almost constantly, I don't really want to live like this, crying and miserable all the time, but, as stated before, cannot and will not live with pain like I do during periods monthly.

So, if it not possible to beat it on bc, I do not know what I will do, I really don't. And I'm scared of that.

I just need some hope that all of this fighting is not in vain, and I'll keep going. I'm hoping that someone out there can give it to Me.
