Avatar n tn My mom had recurring yeast infections as a child, which I just recently found out about, and was diagnosed two years ago with diabetes. I have had my blood checked often for my blood sugar levels, so I know that diabetes is not a factor right now. Thanks for the help in advance. This is driving me crazy!
Avatar f tn should it reoccur, be seen promptly for further evaluation. did they test you for yeast and bacterial infections vaginally at any of your appointments?
6014380 tn?1378523315 Right now I am in the middle of treatment I go back for an infection check on the 16th I live in the USA Michigan. I have been treated in the past with monistat 3 it started out as BV and when it got bad they said it was misdiagnosed and was regular yeast so that is all I have had for the regular yeast but i'm not sure how long I have even had it. I have been suffering from infection tho for about two years. Is it possible for the infection to go from one form to another.
Avatar f tn Herpes is often mistaken for yeast infections, and the fact that the monistat did not help probably means something more is going on (however, it does not sound like you finished the medication?) Either way, get the doc to check it out!
Avatar f tn He did a swab test and a wet lab test. He came back and told me I had a yeast infection.He told me to buy 2 boxes of 7 day treatment beacuse I might have a resistant string of a yeast inection.As of now I finished my first box of the treatment and I dont feel any different.Should I go see another doctor or wait until I finish the other box of treatment?Could it be an underlying problem?
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 Monistat works like a charm for yeast infections! That's what my doctor told me I could take. Just over the counter. He recommended the 7-day treatment. Baby is protected by the bubble she's in, so the medication does not get to him/her. Perfectly safe! Unless as previously said, you have any other complications. I would talk to your doctor before you do anything. And like they said, anti biotics are needed for a bacterial infection. Good luck!
Avatar f tn ve never gotten yeast infections before, so I looked them up on what caused them. It said a lot of times, yeast infections are commonly misdiagnosed with herpes. So I went back and got a blood test... I have been sleepless for days and was wondering if anyone may know what this could be? Does it sound like herpes?
Avatar m tn Can some initial herpes infections have symptoms that are misdiagnosed as yeast? Yes, but it is rare. If a yeast infection has typical symptoms and is professionally diagnosed, almost always it was truly a yeast infection -- not herpes. And yeast infections commonly are associated with small, linear fissures. Such lesions can be a sign of herpes as well. But still, yeast if by far the most likely explanation of your problem.
Avatar f tn I'm 36 weeks pregnant. I gotten alot of yeast infections during my pregnancy. probably around 4 , Ive just got treated for one but I believe I got another again.
Avatar f tn hello...dosomebody kknow...diferents between-yeast infection and bacterial vaginosis?
Avatar n tn So I left his office in tears because I had seen at least 10 ob/gyns prior to him, and all of them had confirmed that I was actually having yeast infections. (Apparently yeast infections are often misdiagnosed, and many other infections can mimic these.) My mom convinced me to follow what he'd recommended. So I did and I was yeast infection-free for a month. After that month, I was staying at a friend's house for the weekend and she used a fancy toilet paper that had aloe on it.

Avatar f tn Im at 8 weeks and I've got my second yeast infection in 2 weeks. I know yeast infections are common during pregnancy but is it common that they come this frequently???
Avatar f tn I am diabetic and I am prone to yeast infections so I had to ask in case. They told me pro b for prevention and Monistat 1 not the 1 day but 3 or 7 and do not insert more than an inch. I hope this helps.
Avatar f tn Is there anyway to prevent yeast infections? Other than staying clean down there. This is my 4th pregnancy and I get them constantly throughout my pregnancy. I'm 4 weeks along and already have developed my first one.
Avatar f tn If so, This will be my 3rd yeast infection in about a month. First time it was a yeast infection and BV. Doctor believes the 2nd yeast infection came from the antibiotic for BV. I just feel like I'm getting the symptoms again and I really hope not. This can't be healthy for me or my baby. It's driving me crazy!!! Anybody else going through this? I'm 17 weeks ftm!
Avatar f tn I have been having complications with yeast infections, someone suggested taking a natural supplemental probiotic, since I can't stomach yogurt, has anyone ever done so while pregnant? I've read online and can't seem to get a straight answer.

Avatar f tn m in my first trimester and pregnancy is already making me experience the wonderful world of yeast infections. I went to the doctor to make sure it is indeed a yeast infection and it is. He didn't prescribe me anything because he said it's too early and to wait until the second trimester, but I've heard of natural remedies, such as the garlic clove in the vagina that cures yeast infections. Has anyone tried this during pregnancy? Is it safe?
