Why does candidiasis keep recurring

Patient's question:

Hello, I have been experiencing recurrent candidal vulvovaginitis for half a year since I had an abortion. I have visited the hospital three times, and each time they prescribed the same medication, just changing the vaginal wash. It seems to be a bit better when I use the wash, but the infection returns after the medication wears off! I don’t know what the reason is? Moreover, I have been cohabiting for three months, but I’m not pregnant!!

Doctor's answer:

This is caused by poor hygiene. It is recommended that both men and women pay attention to genital hygiene and undergo treatment according to the prescribed course. It is best to avoid sexual intercourse during the treatment period.
