iud and frequent yeast infections😭😭😭

Lily
Since getting the mirena iud in feb ive had constant yeast infections. I've tried antifungal meds prescribed by my clinic and vaginal cream two separate times. But i can't seem to get rid of it and it only keeps coming back a few days after the last one. When I looked it up online many people had the same experience and some studies said yeast can live in the strings or on the iud. 
Has anyone had the same experience? If so, were you able to get rid of the yeast infection while still keeping your iud? I love my iud otherwise and don't want to get it removed
If you had this problem and got it removed, what type of birth control did you switch to?
