yeast-infection

Avatar f tn 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. Symptoms of yeast infections usually involve mild to severe itching, redness around the vulva (around the opening of the vagina), and a cottage-cheese like (as in white and chunk) discharge.
5806286 tn?1375050370 I was recently diagnosed with a yeast infection by my doctor, which I didn't even have symptoms for. I know yeast infections are common during pregnancy, and I'm looking for a less synthetic way to help my body heal. My hoo haw doesn't react well to chemicals anyway. Anyone have any suggestions?
Avatar f tn Going to depend how bad the infection is. And btw curing the infection is how symptoms go away lol. Wow ppl are so clueless. And my doctor has a list of what to take for everything when you pregnant. And monistat 7 isn't one. Monistat 3, gyne-lotrimin, terazole (prescription) and fluconazole (prescription). No 1 day creams. This is specifically for yeast infections.
Avatar f tn If it is a yeast infection, yogurt or probiotics may help. However, make sure you follow up with your doctor on this. If it isn't a yeast infection, you may need other treatment.
Avatar n tn Sounds like you have a yeast infection. This may or may not be related to your first time sex. The person you had sex with could have yeast on their penis and this could have transferred it to you. Or you just coincidentally got a yeast infection. They (DOCTORS) usually want you to get swabbed for your first yeast infection and they will give you a pill to clear it up or you can try over the counter medications.
Avatar f tn t hurt to urintae but when urine touches my area it burns I know it is not STDs but have no clue what type of infection I have can it be a yeast infection and should I purchase over the counter creams and save me a trip to the drs...

We dont use condoms and he doesnt ejaculate in me and im not on birth control either so it cant be condoms or birth control. Can anyone please help me out ? I have a doctor's appointment until next week. But i know they wont do nothing about this.
Avatar n tn I looked on the internet and it says there are no drugs that cure yeast infection in men ( only takes away the effects of it ). Does any qualified doctor here know if there is a !!!cure!!! here for year infection in men? I bought canesten cream but its not getting rid of it.
Avatar f tn However ,it is always best to have your condition assessed first. The dosage and dose required for the infection varies on where the infection is located and in the area involved. For instance fungal infections of the nails may require a higher dose and longer treatment than a fungal infection involving the skin of the back or trunk. Also fungal infections may be prevented. This may be contagious so no sharing of towels, clothes and soaps.
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?
Avatar n tn t get an erection and I had what looked like a friction burn on my penis. I also had a flu symptoms. And my body just felt weird. Within a few days I was able to get an erection. I thought it might be yeast infection so I looked for online cures. I drank apple cider vinegar, itchyness 99% gone. Flu symptoms also went away in a day or two. I have tingleing sensations, and a rash on my penis, no discharge, but rash is isolated around the rim of the penis.
Avatar n tn The gynecologist examined it and stated that what she thought was a yeast infection was actually a swollen gland possibly infected. Like stated above it could be an abscess or cyst. Other symptoms I have are those you would get with a yeast infection. I was prescribed antibiotics which I need to stay on for 10 days. Also, taking a sitz bath for 10-15 min. can provide some comfort to area. My Doctor stated that if it doesn't cure on it's own..
Avatar f tn I know that my sister said that her daughter loves to eat lots of bread and will eat up to almost a loaf a day if you let her and it causes her to get yeast infections as well. Remember if you do drink alcohol, a lot of it has yeast in it. A lot of foods has yeast in it as well. I would doubt that maybe some of the meds that are out there probably has yeast in it. Stress does a lot to a person as well. When we get stressed out, our bodies react to it. I hope this helps you out. Good luck.
Avatar f tn A yeast infection is caused by the yeast, Candida, and is itching, has a white discharge (liquid or cottage cheese like), and has a slight odor. A bacterial infection has a more foul odor, is caused by a number of different bacteria, has a yellowish to greenish discharge, and must be treated by a prescription from your doc. Yeast infections can be treated w the over the counter products.
Avatar f tn From my experience, it sounds like you have a yeast infection. My first yeast infection was horribly itchy, red, and irritating all over my vaginal area and they can smell something like fish. And you may or may not see a milky discharge. I've had a few yeast infections and haven't always seen a discharge. To make sure, you should see a doctor. They can usually tell right away if it is a yeast infection and yeast infections are easy to treat.
Avatar f tn 6 months ago I had bacterial infection, took flagyl and got a yeast infection. That seemed normal, except I'm almost positive I've had the YI for 6 months straight. I've tried everything and I mean... EVERYTHING. Diflucan (for a full month), Terzol, Boric Acid (for a full month), probiotics, yogurt, garlic, tea tree oil, apple cider vinegar...you nane it! Went to Gyno and 3 times they looked under scope and saw yeast.
Avatar f tn There is a method of curing yeast infection using natural cures that has been proven to completely eliminate yeast infection in a matter of hours. so, i apologize.....it's not classified as an std, but partners can "trade" it, to one another and to others....
Avatar f tn I am currently on my 3rd day of 100mg doxycycline 2x per day and show no signs of my symptoms getting better. I have seen my general practitioner twice in the last 2 weeks and he seems stumped. Any advice on what type of specialist I should see, what remedy I should try, or what you think this could be?
Avatar f tn Could you possibly have a yeast infection on top of it? Do you have any itching or discharge too?
Avatar m tn A few months later, my wife complains of a yeast infection. She goes to the doctor and they give her tests for yeast infections. They also give her a prescription for terconazole vaginal cream. She uses it and starts to feel better. All her symptoms (basically just irritation) go away. She calls the doctor and they tell her that the tests for yeast came back negative. I have had "urethral awareness" but thats it. I keep on focusing on any feeling in my penis.
Avatar f tn Sweetie, why the dramatic thoughts over a yeast infection? Every single woman on the face of the planet gets one from time to time. Men do too! Yep, they can get yeast and fungal issues just like we can. Babies get them!!! It's just a shift in your ph that causes an overgrowth of yeast. You can get them in your vagina, your mouth, etc. NOT a big deal. Not related to sex or being sexual. We can get them from taking antibiotics even. Really, not a big deal.
Avatar f tn Yeahi went for the past 3 months and I asked the same question but i never really get a clear answer....would men have the same symptoms as woman when they have yeast infections?
