    Hi everyone,

    Ladies everytime I get my chemo, I get a yeast infection.  Just want to know if anyone else gets this .  I get my chemo everyweek but I get a double every third week thats when I get a yeast infection.

    I was having trouble with yeast infections when I was on AC - the onc gave me a prescription pill to take, which I needed almost each time I did DD AC..........

    Good luck.

    I had the same problem.  I was getting triple dose chemos.  Had the yeast infection most of the time.  Even the outer yeast infections -- under my boob and in the groin areas.  Needed cream for that.  Bummer!!!!

    I have one on the outside ever so slightly but it's there.  I got it right after my first treatment.
