Will Having a Yeast Infection Cause my Surgery to Be Put on Hold?

October 1, 2013

I tend to get yeast infections...especially when under stress. Would this cause a delay in having my surgery? So far, I have not found anything that would get rid of this ongoing problem. I know enough to stay away from suger and starches, but it still doesn't seem to stop this when I am under any sort of stress.
