1315373 tn?1274193185 Do I just go to a doctor or can I do something about it myself?
Avatar n tn I have only had sex with 2 guys, one of which is my boyfriend of a year. Almost every time we have sex or fool around, it is painful. I have had yeast infections in the past and have used over the counter meds and even the pills, which tends to help for a while, but it never seems to get completely better. My vaginal area is just sore and I think I produce enough lube, but sex or touching can make it feel raw and sore. Sex is uncomfortable sometimes.
Avatar f tn Can you get a yeast infection when pregnant? And if so whats the causes?
Avatar n tn But if the date of periods is not expected then it can be due to other causes like infection of the cervix or friable growths of cervix like cervical polyps also. In that case, a pelvic examination is needed. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps.
Avatar f tn Up to 3 in 4 people are affected by food intolerance; the four main types of food intolerance are dairy, fructose, yeast and gluten. I have lactose intolerance myself.
Avatar f tn I have had, what I think is a yeast infection for about 3 weeks now. I have had it before. I think it is not an STD because me and my bf had sex months ago with no condom and he did not get anything, I would know he always sleeps naked. Now question, can a yeast infection appear 3 different places at once? It burnes, itches, gets red, swollen and white discharge appears. I am afraid that it might be something else. Please help.
Avatar f tn It sounds as though it could possibly be herpes? You could google herpes and see what they look like and compare to what you have. Have you been to an obgyn? I would definitely suggest that. If it was a yeast infection the diflucan and creams should have worked. I"ve never heard of open sores with a yeast infection. I hope you start to feel better soon. I know it must be very painful. Let us know!!
Avatar f tn So I bought another package of the off brand cream that is for 7 days and o used it for 2 extra nights and it worked. Just make sure when u use any yeast infection medicine, put it in right before u are about to go to sleep so it can't come out that easy.
Avatar n tn ve probably got a yeast infection. go to a obgyn and they will give you a prescription. drink lots of water and cranberry juice in the mean time.
Avatar f tn hi I was wondering if I have a yeast infection I have a wire creamy think discharge and I'm burning there and I'm itchy there aswell, it becomes really painful, any one know what it is?
Avatar n tn m wondering do I have a yeast infection combined with having irritated my rectal/anal area with the baby wipes on a shaved area? I've also been having some mild cramping in my uterus/bladder area like I've had before with a UTI but it doesn't hurt at all to pee. I don't wear cotton underwear a lot except at night and I do work out a lot and work in a gym so I'm constantly sweating but I've not had this before.
1626827 tn?1299434776 o A thick, white, itchy, cottage cheese-like non-odorous discharge is often caused by a yeast infection. Common Causes of an Abnormal Vaginal Discharge * Vaginitis: Vaginitis is a general term that means "vaginal inflammation." Vaginal discharge and genital itching are the symptoms of vaginitis. Vaginitis may occur because of chemical irritation (e.g. excessive douching, or excessive use of over the counter yeast medication) or vaginitis may have an infectious cause.
Avatar f tn Did you get the yeast infection cream because your gynecologist said that you have a yeast infection? If you had the same symptoms when you saw him and he didn't find a yeast infection, there's very very little chance that you have one and you wouldn't get any good out of using the cream anyway. Also, if you do have one and the cream causes burning or pain, call and ask if your doctor wants to suggest a different cream or medicine.
Avatar f tn I have had a yeast infection for about 4 months now. Probably one of the worst things that has ever happened to me. I still have no idea how i got it but it is awful. I have tried monistat, fluconazole, terconazole, and just about anything you can name i have tried it. My biggest issue is the painful sex, my boyfriend and I never had trouble before I got my yeast infection and now i feel like a virgin again, it is the worst. I am really running out of answers now. My Dr.
Avatar n tn Sounds like a yeast infection.....I use to have one once a month when I was 20 years old they went on for a year and half before they went away for good! Just go out and get some Monistat.Dont need to go to the Dr.If you have those symptoms.
Avatar f tn A yeast infection is when the yeast in the vagina, mouth or skin grows out of control so it causes redness and itching. A vaginal yeast infection is usually triggered after the person takes antibiotics, as they also kill good bacteria in the vagina that normally controls the yeast numbers. Natural yogurt with no sugar is the best treatment for it as if contains the bacteria bactillophillus adicophillus (spelling) which feeds on the yeast and regains that natural balance. Hope that helps!
Avatar n tn you spit into a cup of water first thing in the morning and tif in 30 mins the spit in the water doesnt disolve and looks cloudy, you might have a yeast overgrowth which is what causes a yeast infection. how reliable is this?
Avatar n tn She defenately sound like she has a yeast infection.There are different types of bacteria causing yeast infections therefore some can be cured over the counter, some you need a prescription for which can be cheaper than over the counter. I'm not sure what doxy is but I do know that many medicines and especially antibiotics can cause yeast infections. The biggest cause is changes in hormones which are caused by taking these. They are also caused by pregnancy.
Avatar f tn Monistat 3 worked for me. It has 3 applications. My yeast infection was gone in 2 days.
Avatar n tn I have yeast infections every time I am prescribed an antibiotic. You can get medicine over the counter. It will clear it right up. I have heard that you should not have sex because it can be transferable. Yeast infections will drive you crazy! Yogurt definately helps!!
Avatar m tn i was diagnosed with a yeast infection about 4 months ago i tried the cream the doctor subscribed me and avoiding sugar and eating a lot of yogurt because i read that would help. i still have a red area on the bottom of my penis head. Ive also noticed i have clear discharge when i pull my foreskin back over my head, which i just recently been able to pull over my head. i am a male and 16 years old.
Avatar f tn Could this cause a yeast infection so bad that Diflucan is not working? I now have to go to a specialist. Im a hypochondriac but I just wan to know what's wrong with me already! Please help! If this infact just yeast why won't it go away!? And how will the specialists get it to go away since the the Diflucan isn't working. I've also taken flagyl which says no trich and no vaganoisis please help?
Avatar f tn is it possible to get a yeast infection from handling bread (sandwich etc) and then touching your vaginal area (going to the washroom)? the other day i did my laundry after i had a sandwich and touched the crotch areas of my underwear... is it safe to wash that underwear or should i wash it again? is it possible to get a yeast infection from that? i know it sounds like a dumb question but it's really been worrying me.
Avatar n tn It normal to have a yeast infection during pregnancy try keeping your private area dry after you pee n poo
Avatar n tn i know the recommended remedy for this is a course of antibiotics, but they will give me a yeast infection. (normalyl once i get a yeast infection i can;t get rid of it for weeks/months.) can i treat the uti naturally?
