Avatar n tn I took an std test for chlamydia and gonnorea and they both came back negative but the doctor gave diflucan thinking it might be a yeast infection. It worked for about a week and then the burning came back. The doctor then gave me doxycycline( 10 days 2 pills easch day) and said that this should work. It works a little but he said it might take a week and its been six days. I have a couple of questions. 1.
Avatar f tn If your getting yeast infections it means your sugars are very high and not controlled.
Avatar m tn I used an over the counter product for feminine yeast infections and it went away. Is it possible for guys to get yeast infections on a regular basis or could it be a clue to another problem? I have also been tested for syphilis and hiv and they were negative as well.
Avatar f tn Dear Doctor, Here is my situation, i was diagnosed with chlamydia two months ago. The cause should be from one of these three scenario: (1) I have unprotected sex 2 years and 10 months ago. I undergo HIV test and it's negative. (2) I have protected and unprotected sex with my partner. We are still together since 1 year and 10 months ago. (3) I have protected vaginal sex and protected oral sex, fingering with a social sex worker .
Avatar m tn hi since may of this year, i have been on the following, keflex twice(70 pills total), cipro twice (40 pills total), azthromycin twice (8 pills total), doxycycline (40 pills total), bactrim(30 pills) and 3 rocephin shots). would that be why for the past few months i have had yeast/fungal issues, they come and go in my groin and under stomach and arm area, and little yeast bumps on body?
Avatar m tn t tell you why. Yeast infections can occur wherever conditions are right for them and if your immune system, mainly your beneficial probiotic organisms, are no longer a healthy colony. Guess what disrupts them the most? Antibiotics.
Avatar f tn It is not a yeast infection. And the doxycycline is not going to do anything for you at taking it that way. We do not advise on self-medicating. You should wait for planned parenthood or get to a doctor. Treating what you have with the wrong antibiotics can cause it to be resistant and then you may have a more difficult time curing it.
Avatar m tn The pain started out extremely severe, then I was started on doxycycline for about 1 1/2 weeks, and the pain went away for the most part. About 3 days later the pain came back, and I once again took more doxycycline. The pain went away completely for about 2-3 weeks until i obtained this annoying infection once again. I now am taking doxycycline twice a day for 21 days. I have taken about half of my medication so far...
Avatar n tn I actually just called the health department and the nurse said that if i were to come in now it would still test positive but she said it sounds like a yeast infection so she told me to go get stuff for a yeast and if after my treatment is done and it still comes back then I should come in and get checked again
Avatar m tn I realize the you took the azithromycin but she took the doxycycline, as I read your post. This common leads to yeast infections.
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 More than its a yeast infection the same thing happened to me with the infection then yeast infection it was really itchy.
Avatar f tn Ive been on doxycycline for 3 1/2 days, and the discharge has not gone away at all.. may have even worsened. My vagina hurts excruciatingly every time I pee. How long till the pain and discharge goes away?
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 f tn Has anyone else used garlic for yeast infections? I found it as a natural home remedy as well as yogurt and I have no doctor till Monday. Any advice for me?
Avatar f tn Can someone tell me what STDs can be treated with Doxycycline? Can you list all of them please? Thank you.
Avatar m tn He took a swab test, urine sample and gave me 7 days of doxycycline 100mg x 2. I also went to a private clinic for an HSV blood test -- they said it was highly accurate and "would separate out any false positives/negatives". Both doctors said it did not look at all like herpes, but that if so it was most likely not the primary outbreak. The irritated feeling began to subside, but then I drank a beer and urinated.
Avatar m tn t clear what it was she was being treated for. She was given Metranidazole which is for bacterial infections, I thought it was either BV or something similar. I know woman get thrush from time to time, so don't think it was that. Anyway since i've noticed a mild but dull pain in my testes, jelly like substance leaking from penis was passing stools, only once but odd. There is the odd mild stinging pain in my urethra that passes, mainly at the tip.
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 How do they test for yeast infections? I had an appointment about a week and a half ago and told my midwife I thought I had a uti because I always had to pee but when I went , nothing came out. so she made me pee in a cup. They never called me back so I'm guessing I don't have one. But, now that symptom went away and I'm just really itchy down there! I know that's a sign of yeast infection but do you think she tested my pee for that too when I went last time ???
Avatar f tn Latly i been getting a lot of yeast infections i never had them before ....when my doctor gave me medicine it was a one day pill i had relief for two days then it came back so i baught a three day treatment from walgreens and its worked for a week or so and now.
Avatar f tn I am 11 weeks along and just got a yeast infection for the 2nd time. I read this is common in pregnancy but this is my 3rd baby and I've never had this problem before. Anyone else get yeast infections?
Avatar f tn I just got over having a yeast infection it burned n itched...
Avatar f tn Seven months ago my boyfriend and I began having sex, and about two weeks later I started my period but noticed that I was having major pain and itching internally and externally towards the end of my period. I went to the OB/GYN and I did have a yeast infection for the first time ever. I wasn't on any birth control, nor taking any antibiotics, not pregnant, and the pap came back normal with no diseases.
Avatar m tn On April 14th I had unprotected intercourse with another woman. The days passed and I did not think much of this encounter until a couple of weeks after the event a rash appeared on my penis. I went to a GP on May 14th and took a blood test. The doctor thought it was herpes. A couple of days after my blood test I developed a sore throat, then a runny nose, then a slight fever with fatigue. I diagnosed this as a cold and did not think much of it.
