Hi Sandy,
I too get yeast infections after every menstrual cycle. I have been taking Topamax for about 7 years to control seizures. My current dosage is 200mg. When I started taking Topamax I was taking 100mg. I didn't start experiencing regular yeast infections until about two years ago. I went from having about 2 infections a month to now just 1 a month. My nuero and gyno have not related this to Topamax, but I have a feeling there is some connection. I'm sure you know having a low immune system would be one reason for having such frequent infections. I can totally relate to your frustration and wish to know why I am experiencing so many infections. I have gotten into the habit of taking Diflucan after every period to try and prevent the yeast. I would love to know what I can do to rid myself of this monthly infection. I have experienced some hair thinning, but not drastic. Don't worry, you're not alone.
