I have had an outbreak of four weeks. I took tablets for about 5 days at the beginning and thought it was gone. But it came back a few days later. I die nothing for the next few weeks - I would get a blister, then it would heal, then I would get another one a few inches away. A week ago I started on the tablets again, but they are still developing! How long can this last?

How do they test for yeast infections? I had an appointment about a week and a half ago and told my midwife I thought I had a uti because I always had to pee but when I went , nothing came out. so she made me pee in a cup. They never called me back so I'm guessing I don't have one. But, now that symptom went away and I'm just really itchy down there! I know that's a sign of yeast infection but do you think she tested my pee for that too when I went last time ???

Taking birth control/hormone treatment pills – As your body adjusts to a new regimen of contraceptives or hormone treatment, you may experience yeast infections. With treatment and after adapting to the introduction of hormones, these symptoms should go away.
As far as I know, anti biotics are useless against 'yeast' infection. 'Yeast' is a fungus. Anti biotics are useful against 'bacterial' infections only. And the over use of anti biotics can lead to yeast infections as the anti biotics break down the body's own natural defenses.
Your use of the word 'prone' makes me wonder if she has received too many anti biotics.
I would suggest that you try to build up 'her' natural defense system.
Each time that I have been treated with antibiotics, I have ended up with yeast infections of the penis/glans/foreskin, bowel and oral trush. Yeast can be very difficult to get under control. In a case of yeast in the genitals, over the counter products like Monistat and canesten work well and you will begin to notice a difference after about one week. For the bowel, you need to eat a lot of yhogurt, as well as acidohilis. You might even need to get prescription from a doctor.
Your hormones are different and your immune system is weakened from pregnancy. I've had 2 thrush infections and treatment hasn't kept it away. Thrush is a oral yeast infection.
On April 14th I had unprotected intercourse with another woman. The days passed and I did not think much of this encounter until a couple of weeks after the event a rash appeared on my penis.
I went to a GP on May 14th and took a blood test. The doctor thought it was herpes. A couple of days after my blood test I developed a sore throat, then a runny nose, then a slight fever with fatigue. I diagnosed this as a cold and did not think much of it.
m currently treating a vaginal yeast infection and was wondering what your experiences were with Diflucan? How long does a typical yeast infection last? The itching and burning have subsided, and I took my first diflucan pill Sunday (doc gave me 4). I'm also using Vagisil for itching and irritated skin! Thanks!
Has anyone experienced yeast infections during their pregnancy? I never had one but iv had like three since I got pregnant. Any suggestions?
I've heard you can take monistat for a yeast infection. But I would talk to your doctor first. Treatment for a yeast is different than bacterial, and you should make sure you don't have any other complications before starting something.
I have been diagnosed with yeast infections, bacterial infections, several UTIs and trichamonis over the past 7 months...Since then, I have had no sexual intercourse. I was recently tested for HIV by my OBGYN just as a last resort for the possible cause of my issues. She told me I was positive for herpes.She said I was probably infected long ago. My question is, why have I NEVER had any sores, lesions, etc?
Abnormal white or yellow discharge that occurred prior to treatment and during the course of treatment should resolve itself with in several days after the last round of treatment.
Realize any unusual distinct odor from the vaginal area should not be present within several days to 1 week of treatment occurring. Do not use vaginal sprays or douches after treatment.
Realize itching is no longer present. The vaginal area is no longer red near the labia.
My problem is that I come down with infections about every 2 to 3 months. Just before I get the yeast under control I end up with another infection. In my case this is due to the fact that I have a neurogenic bladder and currently have an indwelling catheter to ensure proper draining.
In the case of sexual partners, both should be treated at the same time or abstain from sexual intercourse for the duration of the yeast infection.
