I was taking a 10-day course of antibiotics. I can’t recall exactly when I stopped the treatment. But I know it was no more than 2 weeks ago. A few days ago, I started experiencing yeast infection-like symptoms. Then, yesterday, I went to the doctor. She swabbed and looked at it under the microscope. She said it was positive for yeast.

Could this yeast infection be a result of the antibiotics I took?

Im 12….
Okay, so, I went to the doctor pondering a yeast infection or a vaginal infection. She just took a swab on the inside of my vagina (not an internal) and guessed it was a yeast infection (I had the burning/itching and clumpy discharge). She said take a treatment.
So, we bought a Monistat 3 day treatment, and all seemed well during the few days. The symptoms went away…and I seemed fine.
But then, about a day after, I’ve got itching again. It is itching rather than burning, and it’s itchy a lot. Every couple minutes I’ll have to scratch. My discharge has been more white, but not clumpy.
What is this?
Where going back to the doctor soon, and I know it isnt a UTI because we tested for it at the doctor.
I am awaiting my period (still).
Thanks!
Im not sexually active. Why would i be?

I’m just getting over a yeast infection. It’s been almost a week, but my progress has been up and down due to some activities in which I have participated that have regressed my vaginal healing: swimming and white water rafting (my boyfriend and I were on vacation and I really wanted to get in all the adventure I could!). Right now I’m experiencing slight burning (on a scale of 1 – 10, a 2) around the vaginal opening and labia. I had sex last night considering I was feeling great and it didn’t hurt nor was it uncomfortable – after however, I had a little cut. I was told that dipping a tampon in yogurt and inserting that into my vagina would soothe the burn – but, would it cure it? I was going to wait until next week to see my gyn as it doesn’t seem that pressing. Right now I’m taking probiotics and oregano oil as natural anti-candida remedies. Should I refrain from sex for a few days? How long?

Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks and take care!

I have been taking Aviane birth control for two months now. In the first month, I had a burning, itchy, very uncomfortable vaginal infection. While I’ve never had a yeast infection before, I assumed it was one and bought an over the counter treatment. It went away with a few days after using the treatment. It’s been about a month, and I’m having the same kind of symptoms again. Could this be cause by my birth control?

i had unproteced sex with a guy and a few days after i noticed things just werent the same i looked up my syptoms and it said i had a yeast infection. i thought it had cleared up on its own after about a week and a half but it still smells weird and the discharge is thick. :/ blahhhh i need help!
