Recurrent Thrush

Thrush is a common yeast infection that affects most women at some point in their life.  Whilst most cases can be treated quickly, recurrent thrush needs a different approach where the cause of the thrush is treated.

Who is it for?
Women who have 4 or more episodes of thrush in a year

How often?
As necessary

What does it involve?

  • A consultation with a consultant gynaecologist
  • Blood tests
    • FBC, ferritin, vitamin D, HbA1C, glucose
  • Pelvic examination including high vaginal swab test for microscopic culture and sensitivities for candida
  • Prescription if required
  • Comprehensive report to you and your GP
  • Direct access for any urgent health concerns

The following tests can be added to a recurrent thrush package at an additional cost:

  • Nutritional consultation
  • Follow up consultation
  • Examination with vulvoscope

If you are visiting us at The Portland Hospital, there may be additional hospital charges that will be billed directly to you by the hospital and the total invoice amount should be the same.

Whilst we aim to provide a one stop service for the maximum convenience of our patients, if you have any questions pertaining to your results, we request a follow up appointment is booked. Follow up appointments can be done virtually 30 mins (£175), 15 mins (£100) or face to face 30 mins (£280).
