Abstract

Hyposensitization with a commercially available antigen was attempted in treatment of women suffering from recurring monilial vaginitis. Ten women entered the trial, each being used as her own control. Eight showed undoubted improvement and the average interval between relapses increased from 5.1-15.7 mo. (P < 0.01). Reasons were given for believing that allergic reactions play a part in recurrent vaginal thrush.
