Am I doing too much?

I am using Nystatin along with herbal antifungals which I rotate every week and two probiotics: Lactoferrin with colostrum and Syntol AMD. I am still getting yeast infections. Is this because I am doing too much or there is still something in my diet that I need to eliminate?
What else are you doing to fight candida? It sounds like you are destroying it only and not introducing beneficial flora for your gut. The single most important thing you need to get over candida overgrowth is probiotics, not antifungals.

I’m also taking digestive enzymes and drinking two tablespoons of organic apple cider vinegar three times a day. I am cultivating milk and water kefir but I haven’t taken any Since I’ve been taking Syntol which is about two weeks.
So everything I listed is an anti fungal? I thought that Syntol AMD and Lactoferrin were probiotics. Everything I’m doing is destroying yeast but is that why I’m still getting vaginal yeast?
How long have you been on the diet?

A month.
Plan on a much longer recovery time to get over candida overgrowth. I tell most people on the forum to expect a 6-18 monthr recovery time.
Also, what are you eating? If you are eating items such as carrots, rice, potatoes, beef, etc. then this could be apart of the problem as well.

Yes, I’ve all of those but not frequently. So, as quickly as I kill fungus, more is reproduced?
If you continue to feed the fungus food items it likes, it will not be destroyed. We have a strict forum food list, and if you are interested, email able900 for a copy.
We also developed this general plan to get better:

If you haven’t improved your digestion, you could have food fermenting in the gut and candida loves to feed on fermented foods. Anything less than 3 bowel movements per day is considered constipation per dr. mcoombs.
