question: 2014 was a very stressful year. I also turned 40 in January. About a week after my birthday a stressful event seemed to cause a hormone iimbalance. I got a yeast infection for the second tI me in my life. It went away with my period but after a week and a half later it came back. I ve tried all the otc stuff. Goes away but comes back a week later. Any stressful event in flames it greatly. What do you think this is caused by?
