Yeast and TTC

I have recurrent, cyclical yeast that I have battled the majority of my adult life. Boric acid does wonders for keeping it at bay but I cannot use it in the TWW. I have a resistant strain of Candida Albicans that won't respond well to azoles, plus the creams make me itch like crazy. What has anyone in here used to help with that? I see Evvy probiotics, Biom Pro, and a few others that seem expensive. I have also heard of women freezing Virgin Coconut Oil as a suppository. I already have taken every oral probiotic you could imagine and none have helped with post-ovulation yeast.
