The best thing to do is to go see your provider and get tested for yeast and bacterial infections. Better to go be seen and properly tested than it is to guess what is going on , self treat wrongly and potentially prolong how long you are feeling uncomfortable.

Is it possible the sores on my boyfriend are from a yeast infection he caught from me? As well as the sore on my thigh? Neither of us feel any flu like symptoms or swollen lymph nodes or any of the other symptoms from "herpes" and his shedding and slight redness on his penis went away relatively fast. Also I do have an appointment next with my doctor for a pap smear, should I ask for a bloode test as well? I am scared as I don't know what to think?

How did I get a yeast infection? Yeasts live in the GI tract. You don't have to catch them from someone. 4. About 1 week ago I started to notice sone red bumps, like pimples between my upper thighs and scrotum. Is this related? Not sure. Probably not. Ask your dermatologist. If the Oxistat doesn't work in 2 weeks, ask your dermatologist about a single-dose, oral anti-yeast medicine.

Hmmm, this could be anything from a bacterial infection to an STD you need to see a doctor asap to have this diagnosed.

I dont mean to gross anyone out, but lately (since pg began) i have had a discharge which I have been calling a yeast infection. there is no itching or anything else. DH is so sensitive to it, that I havnet asked the doc when i go see him (since dh is with me). Is this normal to have?

I have had yeast infections since I was born. I do not know why. When I was in third grade they tried to take a swab and I was too scared to let them. From the time I was about 14 to 19 the yeast infections stopped. Now I am 22 and since about last year they have been coming back. I noticed I began having yeast infections the more I drank alcoholic beverages. I am beginning to believe it has something to do with that. So I am going to stop drinking for a while and see what happens.

Just don't have sexual intercourse. Wash your genital area frequently with a nonscented gel , like summers eve.

umm i think its yogurt that is good during a yeast infection, well i think to prevent yeast infections soemhting ot do with the bacteria inn it......yours doesn't sound like it's that bad for now,,,although i would be concerned with the itching...i had a prescription with mine,,,,these little egg like things to put inside and they dissolve inside and after taking the third one,,,its all over and done with....

(btw I was extremely dehydrated and felt completely worn out and terrible while taking this) By day 10 I couldnt take the metro pills any more because I had developed what I think was a yeast infection (looked more like dry dough on the outer parts of my vagina- didnt look like cottage cheese). I reported my symptoms to her and she prescribed mure fluconazole 2 doses, on day 1 and again 3 days later.

I have red pust pimples all over my arms stomache and lower thighs but on my upper left thigh i have a really big red angry looking rash that i think it might be a yeast infection i dont know what they are i have never had yeast infection or poison ivy before they both keep spreading and they itch really bad and the anti itch power i got for my thight isn't working.

Since my last post I developed a sore on the back of my thigh, the opposite thigh where I developed my first sore. At first there was a little pain when I would sit down and it didnt feel like a pimple or anything, its not formed a crust. Also my inner left ear has been very itchy and there has been pain when pressured. The texture inside my ear also feels different, almost dry. Any thoughts? Thank you again.

it hasnt spread beyond that area, and its like a discoloration with small, almost miniscule red spots that appear and disappear randomly. i had sex with my ex girl friend while she had a yeast infection, could i have gotten a yeast infection from her? and if so, would that be the cause of the rash?

I was seen, looked at, and then told it was a yeast infection. Jock itch the doctor called it. Such a common problem with men but having no idea what fungal infections looked like I never would have come to that diagnosis myself. So I left after being given an anti fungal pill and a prescription for Econazole Nitrate feeling like an idiot for having just left the ER with jock itch.

Okay,I'm back and I've been reading and researching on male yeast infections and I didn't think they we're possible. But anyways the tip of my penis is red and I have a rash on it and I itch a lot in the buttocks area,also my scrotum is red and my upper thighs tend to be red a lot I also have slight discharges every now and then.I think I got it from masturbation bc I was going like 3 times a day now I've stopped and I was wondering is this a yeast infection or something else?

That symptom was replaced by itching of my clitoris and external surrounding areas, there was no abnormal discharge , i researched it on the internet and i figure that i have a yeast infection. Now i have a thickish whitish yellow discharge but it isn't cottage cheesy like others have described. Right now the itching is still there but it isn't anything like it was its quite a bit better and mostly itchy around the clit area.

- Eating good quantities of curd, salad - Debating between taking Fluconazole 150 MG once a week for three weeks or Lamisil 250 MG everyday for one week to cure current infections. - Wearing full sleeve sweatshirt so as to not spread infection. I'll start on the Fluconazole/Lamisil medication today, I might go with Fluconazole as it has worked for me and will be cheaper than Lamisil, and is about as effective but takes a little longer. Please let me know what you think of this.

Could this be from a yeast infection? Or some thing more? I don't have insurance so it's hard to get into any doctor but I am gonna try next week. I've read online it could be syphilis, herpes or chancroid?. I'm extremely scared & paranoid.

After about 3 months I did a bit of research and realised I had a yeast infection but I was still too embarrassed but I found canesten so I used that but nothing happened and I even tried garlic cloves and inserting a tampon with natural plain yogurt but still no results.

I went to the doctor and explained I thought it was a yeast infection. She did NOT test for a yeast infection because I did not have the discharge. She did a urinalysis and said I had a UTI and the itching could be from that. So i took the antibiotics and applied a&d ointment to the vulva and the itching seemed to dissipate. I also remembered having some hip pain. So now a few months later I have had intense burning in my inner thighs and groin now around my menstrual cycle.

Hello hun, honeslty i truly do not believe thr it is a yeast infection, especially for eight years. If it was a yeast infection you would have a yellowish or other than cream colored discharge, itchiness of the actual vagina, not the bumps and you would, as a lot of people do have burning of the vagina as well. Im not too sure how this would qualify for a yeast infection and they should have done a pap smear at the gyno n tested u for a yeast infection, not just tell u to use monistat.

I then developed a patch on my groin about 5 inches long by 3 inches wide that looks like a super red burn type patch. It didn't hurt but was itchy. doctor told me it was yeast infection on my upper leg thigh area in the groin. I don't get them, but I wondered if my boyfriend who gave me the STI could have given me this too with his recent affair. I have a strong feeling he sees strippers and I know they table dance and rub themselves on men in the champagne room.

Anything that is wrong in genital regions should be checked out, because it could be a number of things not necessarily a yeast infection. I highly doubt you have a yeast infection because if you had a yeast infection at 11, your symptoms would have gotten unbearable and caused very very severe symptoms, as yeast can travel deeper than just your vagina if left untreated.

I do have two very tiny pimples on my left butt cheek, one tiny pimple on my chest, and one very tiny one on my right thigh. Could this be a UTI, a yeast infection, or is there a high chance of it being genital herpes? I think I am losing my mind! I was first terrified of having acquired HIV for absolutely no reason. I had a little rash on my back so I started freaking out. I had an HIV test done at 9 weeks and it came out negative.

suddenly three days before i got some itchy reddish skin rash on chest and thighs! it disappeared with my yeast infection medicines!! Well i forgot to mention that i dont have the habit of cleaning my inner skin of penis with soap! :-( Hence the infection is due to that?? Or i undergone unprotected oral sex and protected sex with a sex worker 2 months ago please help!!!

eight months before my ear surgery is done then the doctor use antibiotics (like augmentin,ciproflaxin,oflaxcin) for a three months. it ia an yeast infection plz answer to my question if it is yeast infection waht i do now.and 5 months beforei did sex with one lady .

Today, I finally went to a doctor at a walk-in clinic and she tells me I have a yeast infection. I have no discharge...everything is external and internal of the labia. Forget the fissure and hemorrhoid...the "other" is so itchy, inflamed, sore and swollen, who has time to think about the anal problems? So, my question is...a yeast infection without a discharge? Never had one of those before. Does this happen?

Yeast is one kind of fungus, but vaginal yeast infections are different than fungal infections involving the groin, inner thighs, etc. The last type is called tinea cruris -- jock itch when it occurs in men. Such infections are more related to athlete's foot than to vaginal yeast infections. Finally, you could have some sort of bacterial infection, i.e. staph, strep, or that sort of things.

About a year ago I thought I had a yeast infection and I used monistat. I had an allergic reaction and the doctor thought it was herpes. She gave me diflucan anyway just in case. A culture and blood test said negative for HSV1 and 2. The diflucan caused me to get a bacterial infection and then the medicine for that caused an actual yeast infection. Since then I have not felt normal. I only have relief when I have my period or for a few days when I have discharge.
