Avatar n tn Its very common to get multiple yeast infections during pregnancy. There isn't really any way of preventing as hormones change constantly. Speak with your doctor to see about preventatives but I've learned they don't help much.
1168718 tn?1464983535 From what I have learnt, all yeast infections begin in the gut, so to get to the root cause of the problem you need to take a pro-biotic to redress the imbalance. I tried this once and, lo and behold , it WORKED! So while smearing cream on your nether regions may seem logical, it doesn't fix the root of the problem. Fix the gut, and the rest will sort itself out.
Avatar m tn My fiance and I have been together for nearly two years and sexually active for the past year. Initially we used no protection and she had no issues whatsoever. I used the pull-out method. Not wanting to have any more children she underwent a tubal ligation about eight months ago. Since then she has had recurring vaginal issues including numerous severe yeast infections, UTI's, and bacterial vaginosis. She has been on anti-biotics so frequently it's pathetic. Although she asked her Dr.
Avatar m tn If they are unable to do so it is usually caused by age or an outside source. As far as the fungal or yeast ingestion goes, when a person gets a yeast infection anywhere in their body it often times bounces from one place to the next because it always starts in the stomach, even the type woman get, and there is very few conventional medicine doctors who treat it properly. They tend to treat the area where it shows up when in reality the should be treating the stomach where it began.
Avatar f tn I know that my sister said that her daughter loves to eat lots of bread and will eat up to almost a loaf a day if you let her and it causes her to get yeast infections as well. Remember if you do drink alcohol, a lot of it has yeast in it. A lot of foods has yeast in it as well. I would doubt that maybe some of the meds that are out there probably has yeast in it. Stress does a lot to a person as well. When we get stressed out, our bodies react to it. I hope this helps you out. Good luck.
Avatar n tn I just googled this for you and I hope it helps Michelle The Group A beta hemolytic Streptococcus germ causes numerous infections, chiefly of the respiratory tract, but also involving other organ systems, chiefly the skin and lungs. The throat infections themselves are rarely serious and ordinarily, like most repiratory infections, are handled by the immune system without too much difficulty.

Avatar f tn Has anyone had multiple yeast/BV infections? I've had 3 so far and I think I'm having another! I'm going to ob tomorrow and I'm sure I'll get some meds. It's frustrating. Anyone Else?!?! Please help.
Avatar f tn high levels of simple sugars, processed foods and simple carbs can be a contributor to yeast infections. Some food allergies can also cause yeast infections. Sexual transmission: men CAN have yeast infections (their doctors may call it "jock itch" which can make it tough for a guy to even know he has a yeast infection), and women who are sexual partners can also transmit them between each other.
713383 tn?1232483914 His ears smell terrible, which leads me to believe he is getting chronic yeast infections in his ears. What causes this and is there some alternative, perhaps herbal supplement I can give him since traditional medicine seems to be failing? This has been going on for years now and they just keep coming back. I am wondering if they are ever really going away. I feel terrible for him and am desperate to help him. It is costing me a fortune and hasn't provided him with any relief.
Avatar f tn Sweetie, why the dramatic thoughts over a yeast infection? Every single woman on the face of the planet gets one from time to time. Men do too! Yep, they can get yeast and fungal issues just like we can. Babies get them!!! It's just a shift in your ph that causes an overgrowth of yeast. You can get them in your vagina, your mouth, etc. NOT a big deal. Not related to sex or being sexual. We can get them from taking antibiotics even. Really, not a big deal.
Avatar f tn Keep in mind, even with those treatments if there is a definite and bad odor, as specialmom says, that's not the primary symptom of yeast infections. I mentioned yeast infections first because you said "cheesy." My second guess would have been bacterial vaginosis (BV), as she mentioned. It won't hurt to try an over-the-counter preparation for a yeast infection, but if the smell persists, she should definitely see a doctor and get a run of antibiotics.
Avatar n tn Vaginal odors can be cause by bacteria/yeast infection. Do you have discharge? I suggest you see your Gyno. Make sure you get a pap once a year.
Avatar n tn I am 20 years old and I too have been suffering from recurrent yeast infections, or so says my gynecologist. What symptoms were you experiencing with your yeast infections at the time? And to what body areas did you apply Synalar?
Avatar n tn Ive been really itchy in the vaginal area and it burns when i go pee. Could this be a yeats infection? I also noticed i have bumps that hurt. Is anyone know what this could be?

When i do have discharge its white sometimes a mild yellow. If anyone knows what is wrong please help. The smell is like a rotten smell.
