Its not sharp, but is there all the time, whether im walking, sitting laying down. its been going on for a few days now but getting intensified. also have itching, stinging when peeing. sometimes normal discharge, sometimes stinky green discharge, sometimes none at all /(dry as climakterium women)… doctor refuses to take std tests part from chlamydia that turned out to be neg. no yeast infection treatment worked (tried 2 treatments=4 diff medications).

Hi, my name is Steffany I’m 23 years old and I have a question. Aproximately around September 2009 I developed an irritation and pain after sexual intercourse for the first time of my life. I got worried and I ask my PCP what could it be, we agree that it was most likely Yeast, so I go some over the counter suppositories, the irritation was still there so he recomended to take a single dosis of Diflucan and after that it will be completely gone. Well it didn’t go away so I went to the OBGYN she took a culture and looked it up on the microscope, it came up to be Yeast as we assumed before, she also tested me for Chlamydia because of my symptoms of pain during and after sex,I got also tested for HIV, Syphilis, sugar and Thyroid, everything came up normal and negative. My OBGYN gave me a vaginal cream that I used for 7 days,during those 7 days I got my period but I keep on using it, at the end of the treatment the infection was gone, but 2 weeks later it came back. I went back again to the OBGYN she looked up another sample under the microscope and the yeast was still there (at this point I was already following all the hygene advices that she gave me) She told me a few more hygene habits and some things that I need to avoid and she gave me another prescription for Diflucan (single dose) I took it and follow all the instructions avoiding sexual intercourse and everything. During the waiting time after taking the pill, I got my period and the infection was gone, but not for too long, every since then I been getting the same symptoms at least 1 week before my period comes, with the exception that I don’t get the irritation or pain, but I do get the white discharge without smell and the itchines. I don’t know what to do, it is very unconfortable and discusting to me. I have to say also that I’m married, been with same sexual partner for the last 5 years, I just turned 23 years old yesterday, and I been taking oral contraceptives for about 4 years (I used Yasmin and about 3 months ago I switched to Ocella the alternative for Yasmin) I haven’t been on any antibiotic treatment, and always but, even more after the first diagnosis of yeast, keep good hygenic habits. I will apreciate if you can guide me on what to do since I don’t want to go to the OBGYN have them do a culture and give me another treatment that will help only for a few weeks and then it will come back. Thank you for your help

My boyfriend has been taking an antibiotic for a while now and we recently found out that he has a yeast infection. He has been having testicular pain as well and we were wondering: Could that be from the yeast infection or should we be worried about something more serious?
The antibiotic is a 1 week treatment for chlamydia, which he got from his previous girlfriend, the only girl he’s ever had sex with.

I dont want answers that say just suck it up and take antibiotics, PLEASE. Thanks.

I don’t take pills, I haven’t in 4 years. I really strongly believe that anti-biotics aren’t the way to go for many reasons:
1- They kill the bad bacteria, but they destroy the good too
2- weakens the immune system, which isn’t great during the flu season
3- Produces a yeast infection after, which isn’t that fun to deal with.. then I’d have to either get more antibiotics or an over the counter treatment.
4- They are bad on the stomach.

Theres just many reasons I don’t think anti biotics are great, and I’m on the hunt to find a natural treatment for chlamydia. Please, if you know anything help.

Its a bacteria, and so is a yeast infection. Why can a yeast infection be cured over the counter but chlamydia can’t?

Any feedback, except saying to just take the damn pills, are welcome.
I don’t trust my doctor anymore. I told him months ago the symptoms I was having, and he said it was a yeast infection. I asked if he could do a test or look at it at least and he said no, it would be fine. The only reason i found out is becuase I went for my annual. If my doctor would of checked it out months and months ago, I wouldn’t have to worry about being infertile and having PID.
