Avatar n tn When you have a yeast infection and you treat it at home, how many days before it *should* go away? I have never have had one so i'm still learning.
1142929 tn?1271622835 I'm 23, it started out like this: I used vinegar (I know bad idea!) but like not even diluted, like an idiot, and I pretty much scalded myself, but because I'm such a weirdo I thought that maybe the next day when I was so itchy that it was an STD from a guy I had just hooked up with, we didn't have sex but...well we almost did, there was skin contact...
Avatar f tn i know i personally had burning with 3 day and my doctor said the medication in day 1 and day 3 are a lot stronger than the 7 day..
Avatar f tn with a lil bit of discharge for the past 2 months. After the first month passed i went to the doctor and she told me i had a yeast infection. I took the medicine, got a lil bit of relief but it never went away. I went to the doc again the other day and got some medicine. Its been 2 days since i took the meds and i still dont feel any relief. Could this be a yeast infection or somthing else ?
Avatar f tn Go to chemist and get cream or prescription for cream from doctor. Live yogurt is thought to help but you'll need to medicate it properly to get rid of it completely.
Avatar f tn I had yeast infection twice throughout my pregnancy and never used OTC medication but best advice to avoid it any further, you must eat plain yoghurt regularly. It really helps and its good for both you and your baby.
Avatar n tn From personal experience yeast infection is not the cause.
Avatar f tn Talk to your doctor about the yeast infection and you can possibly get a medication for it also, or switch to a different medication for the eczema to prevent future infections. Also i know that using an anti-itch ointment helps me when rubbed externaly on the parts that itch. hope i helped.
Avatar f tn My Dr said I have a yeast infection but I have had one before and I got pills this time she gave me this cream and a tube and I fill the tube with the cream and stick the tube up my vag and release the cream in there. Why would she prescribe this why couldn't I get pills. I thought that's what I was getting and it's to late to call and ask her why I got it. Is there different kinds of yeast infections that's why I got the cream?
1373602 tn?1373026364 So far during my pregnancy I have been to my doc about 9 times with a Yeast infection...she gives me medication every time goes away for a good few weeks and then comes back... this time it only came back because I had a Kidney infection and the medication caused one! I think you should get another doc!
Avatar n tn I have a yeast infection and have used a 3 day and 1 day OTC treatment and i still have the itch.
Avatar m tn My doctor did not do a swap test or anything but thought i had a bacterial infection. Present day ( a week of the medication) I still feel the itchiness and am thinking that I have a yeast infection. I've heard eating yogurt can help fight it, but what about dairy free yogurt? Would eating one container of dairy free yogurt help? I have an allergy to dairy, I looked online and found "so delicious" yogurt which is dairy free.
Avatar f tn Anyone have a yeast infection before? 22 weeks today! What are the signs? What do you do for it? Is it harmful for baby?
Avatar f tn Sometimes you can get an yeast infection right after the med just wait until your doctor check you and let you know everything.
Avatar m tn ABSOLUTELY NOT! Do not try to have sex while you have a yeast infection or are taking the medication. Give yourself/body time to heal. The infection can be spread to your partner causing him similar symptoms and discomfort. Give it a few days(or at least until you finish the medicatio) then resume the fun and games.
Avatar f tn I read one of the possible side effects is an yeast infection, so I would assume no..
Avatar f tn Let your OB know because many times its hard to tell the difference between bacterial vaginosis and a yeast infection.
Avatar f tn Yeast is typically not fishy..sounds more like BV to me...in which case monistat will not treat.
Avatar f tn What's a safe not medication I can use to treat a yeast infection? I heard keeping the area dry is best, but I also heard baby powder and cornstarch aren't good to use.
Avatar m tn I have had a yeast infection every month for the past 26 years !!!! Please help me !!!! I have been to specialists , gyno, no one knows what's going on !!!!
Avatar n tn you could have a yeast infection but im not sure that affects your period. they are easy to get rid of. you should tell your mom about it and have her get you some over the counter medication for it.
Avatar f tn My urine sample results came back from the doc n turns out i have a yeast infection? Didn't even realize it! What's the best solution? I've never taken meds for them before i just waited for them to go away.
Avatar n tn Am sexually active after marriage,last week I started experiencing vagina discomfort whereby I scratch it,I was given medication (Oral and insertion tablets) it stopped for a while, then reoccurred this time my clitoris became sore and very itchy. At times I feel like staying without an inner wear. I have stopped having sex for about 1 Week now and I feel at least better. I avoid touching or rubbing my clitoris due resulting itchiness. pls help.
Avatar f tn I just had a uti and got prescribed medicine to get rid of it and then i got a yeast infection cause the uti medicine killed good bacteria so i got prescribed cream to put on for 7 nights.
1315373 tn?1274193185 Do I just go to a doctor or can I do something about it myself?
Avatar f tn Monistat or something similar is safe to take during pregnancy and if the baby is born vaginally while you have a yeast infection, he or she could end up with thrush in his mouth and that would be much trickier to get rid of. Unfortunately, yeast infections are just more likely to happen during pregnancy. I never had one in my life until I got pregnant and now I've had two! Both were diagnosed by my midwife and both times they told me to take the over the counter remedy.
Avatar n tn im 14 and im pretty sure i have a yeast infection, i have red itchy bumps all over my body except my face but some are on my vagina my discharge comes out as white and creamy and it smells.
