Avatar f tn The overuse of antibiotics has created resistant strains of bacteria and fungi that have made stays in the hospital too risky. The results can be chronic yeast infections, chronic other fungal infections, and, yes, mental illness, as recent research is focusing heavily now on the effect of these beneficial organisms on mental health. I think you're talk with your physician is a good idea, and I'd look for alternatives to taking antibiotics for anything but life threatening illnesses.
Avatar f tn I just need some peace of mind. On 10/28/2010 I engaged in unprotected oral sex with a heterosexual male of unknown status (he has not been tested, but stated that his most recent partner has been and did not have any stds). I went down on him for a few minutes, but he did not ejaculate in my mouth (so only exposure to precum). He did perform oral sex on me. I tested for HIV using the HIV rapid response blood test on 12/23/2010 and my result was negative.
Avatar m tn What you have read about minocycline is highly theoretical, and it has never been studied for its effect in actually suppressing the virus in humans (or, as far as I know, in animal models). Until and unless such studies are done and show an effect -- either in existing HIV infections or as PEP -- it definitely should not be used as a PEP drug. That will end this thread. I won't have any further comments or advice.
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 m tn The name of this medication i am on is Minodene (50mg) and it contains a substance called Minocycline. It says it is used for sexually transmitted infections, prostate infections etc and in the instructions it says it may affect medical results. Is the test at 8 weeks reliable?? so in other words im on these tablets and do the tablets affect my result i got from a INSTI test? Thanks!
Avatar f tn I've heard you can take monistat for a yeast infection. But I would talk to your doctor first. Treatment for a yeast is different than bacterial, and you should make sure you don't have any other complications before starting something.
280418 tn?1306325910 ve been dealing with a big fat yeast infection of my gut and other parts of my body, and in going back and reading about systemic yeast infections, there are some mentions in passing of hives being a symptom of a yeast infection in some individuals who are susceptible. If you've been on antibiotics for any period of time both now and earlier, it's possibly an issue.
Avatar f tn I was on a very low 50 dose but it ask made me sick and gave my husband a yeast infection. I stopped taking it and now I have another one. I'm 38 weeks and praying I don't get a yeast infection again. I don't take baths anymore. Only use summers eve soap. Practically shower after sex.
Avatar f tn hello...dosomebody kknow...diferents between-yeast infection and bacterial vaginosis?
Avatar f tn I used to get yeast infections every time I had intercourse. The only way I was able to stop this from happening was by douching with a vinegar and water rinse right after having sex. It was a major inconvenience but it definitely stopped the ongoing yeast infections. And on those occasions when I was too "lazy" or "relaxed" to get up and douche, the infection would return without fail. A vinegar douche really does help, but it is a major "mood disrupter.
Avatar m tn Hi, Minocycline and Doxycycline are all types of Tetracycline. Minocycline is the most broad spectrim of the three. So, Minocycline should work better than Doxycycline. I can't see why a bacteria would be resistant to Minocycline would be sensitive to Doxycycline. It would be the other way around. Lyme's disease takes two months of Doxy or Minocycline to treat. So it could take that long for other bacteria.
Avatar f tn You cant have vaginal sex and then go right to anal sex or vice versa. Its not healthy and it brings bacteria. The yeast infection you probably had, but had sex with your husband anyways before getting treated and then you keep passing to each other. That happened with me and BF. But...if you have no signs of a yeast infection, then your husband is the one that needs to go to the doctor to get medicine to clear it up.

Avatar n tn t happen all the times but most times when I am dry. I am 32 years old and he is 49 I have went to the doctor and I keep getting yeast infections. I use the over the counter meds fr it and sometimes the doctor prescribes me creams but it keeps coming back. Is it coming back because I gave it to him and he brings it back to me each time? He is a diabetic and is uncircumcized but he is very clean and has good hygienes in that department.
1168718 tn?1464983535 with ms, but I have had the same exact question. I was wondering if I had continuous yeast infections and if it had something to do ms. I had recently gone for my annual Pap and all tests were clear for infection..... so what has been causing the "itch". My doc. said that in the beginning (5 months ago) it could have been yeast and I treated it, but to me it kept coming back, or so I thought, she said I must have treated it with the OTC inserts and it went away. But to this day...
Avatar f tn Douching upsets the natural balance of bacteria and yeast in your vagina and will cause infections. 2. Avoid bread and sugary foods as much as possible. If there is yeast in your vagina it is in the rest of your body too and sugar will just feed it. 3. Use condoms if you have sex. You CAN give a yeast infection to a guy (they usually get no symptoms) and then he will just keep passing it back to you. 4. Eat yogurt with live cultures in it - sugar free is best, but any kind helps. 5.

Avatar f tn Im 6 months pregnant and I have never had this many yeast infections in my life. I only bathe with dial soap and the doctor said I shouldnt take baths, nothing but showers. Can anybody help me with some remedies or something to help with the yeast infections ??
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 n tn I'd rather use the creams. I'm currently battling an external yeast infection that has affected the top of my inner thighs (where the leg and vulva meet), my vulva and it's creases, lower abdomen and the very bottom of my butt. Also, near my vaginal opening I scratched myself too hard so there's scratches and it burns like a mother when I pee and the urine flows downward onto it. I am on the larger side of the body size scale (about 5'6 and over 300lbs).
1853129 tn?1319530083 I'm 19 years old and got my first yeast infection about 9 months ago. Of course, I went to a Gyno to check up and got a pill that got rid of my infection. Sadly, my yeast infection came back! Not only once but a few more times after that! I've gone to the store and picked up some Monistat which worked, but my yeast infection continued to come back. I'd like some advice on what I could do to stop this from happening.
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 Your hormones are different and your immune system is weakened from pregnancy. I've had 2 thrush infections and treatment hasn't kept it away. Thrush is a oral yeast infection.
