Chronic fungal infections in the inner thighs and private areas indicate a deep-seated imbalance, often aggravated by improper use of steroidal creams. In Ayurveda, this aligns with *Dadru* or fungal skin disease. Clean the affected area gently with a decoction of neem leaves or *Triphala*. Apply *Jatyadi Taila* or *Nalpamaradi Kera* to heal and protect the skin. Internally, take *Gandhaka Rasayana* or *Mahatikta Ghrita* to purify the blood and enhance immunity. Avoid heavy, oily, and sugary foods that can worsen the condition. Wear loose, breathable cotton clothes to keep the area dry, and ensure proper hygiene. Consult an Ayurvedic physician for precise formulations and dosages.

It sounds like you've been through quite a lot with this fungal infection, especially over such a long time. Using creams like Sona Derm N M for prolonged periods can indeed lead to skin thinning and sensitivity, making it more challenging to manage the condition. In Ayurveda, we try to address the underlying imbalances rather than just symptoms.
First up, let's consider the potential dosha imbalance. A Pitta-Kapha imbalance could contribute to fungal infections. To calm Pitta, avoid spicy, oily, and fermented foods, as they might aggravate the condition. Focusing on lighter meals like steamed vegetables, whole grains, and plenty of hydrating fluids like coconut water could be a help.
Neem (Azadirachta indica) is known for its antifungal properties in Ayurveda. You could try creating a paste by mixing neem powder with water, apply it gently to affected areas a couple of times a day and see if this helps you. Please ensure your skin isn't reactive to this, test it on a small patch first!
Turmeric is another excellent herb for its anti-inflammatory and antifungal qualities. Try incorporating more turmeric in your diet or taking a half teaspoon of it with warm water every morning.
Maintain good hygiene, keeping the area dry as fungus loves moist environments. Avoid tight clothing and opt for natural fabrics like cotton which are more breathable.
Now, don't neglect professional medical advice for such persistent issues – it's essential to keep a dermatologist or an ayurvedic practitioner involved. They can offer more directed treatment options and monitor your progress effectively.
Remember, balance is key, and it might take a bit to find what works for you. Be patient with the process and take it one step at a time.
