I noticed that my vaginal discharge was getting heavier. Then I started scratchin on the outside of my vulva. So I figured I had some type of yeast infection.
Now, I have little scratches or tears from where I have been rubbing. and also my clitoris actually hurts. Like its more like pain instead of sexual gratificaion.

Has anyone ever experience this?
I am currently using a 3-day vaginal yeast infection treatment until I can get into the doctors office.

I have been thoroughly drying the area when I get out of the shower and using the treatment at night as directed, wearing loose clothes, and cotton underwear

Symptoms

Itching
Swelling a little
Sometimes it burns
I have ALWAYS had vaginal discharge, but my parents think it’s from when I was molested when I was younger (k-8th grade)

Need to knows?

I have been sexually active (I really don’t want to get lectured on this, my parents know and we got over it. I also knew the dangers) with only one person, my boyfriend (we technically our virginity to each other, too.) He does not have any STD’s and neither do I. BUT I was molested by my stepfather since I was little up until 8th grade. I am in 10th grade now.

I have been on Loestrin 24 FE birth control for a few months. I have also been on the same kind for four months before I started again. I took a break for a month

I have gone to the "girly doctor" once (they gave me medication for a yeast infection)

I have had itching for a series of days twice now. It keeps happening.

This is the fourth time in the same year that I have had a yeast infection (or something like one).

I don’t really wear tight clothing, but my underwear kind of is (thongs, boyshorts, nylon, heck I honestly don’t really know…)

I USED to wipe back to front a year ago because I couldn’t get everything off (I have no idea why) but I found out that caused it so I have been wiping the correct way since.

I clean myself "down there" when I shower and bathe. I shower usually every day but some days I don’t have time so I skip a day or two.(I really have no choice) I have been told it is bad to clean myself there, and I have been told it was good.

I have been having infections a lot lately. My mom says it’s because of my underwear but I do wear cotton, too. I don’t like tight clothing that much but I do wear it.

Here are my questions

Do I have a yeast infection again? My mom says she doesn’t think I need to see the doctor. My doctor kind of creeped me out.

If I do, could it have anything to do with my boyfriend? (I KNOW he hasn’t cheated on me and I KNOW he doesn’t have any STD’s.
Can guys get yeast infections WITHOUT having sex?

Is it good or bad to clean my vaginal area?

Besides Monistat and those medications like it, are there any natural remedies around the house I can use to relieve the itching and get rid of the infection that I can aply to the area directly and/or eat or something? (I am really poor, I can’t afford to buy more medications for it.)

Can having reaccuring yeast infections be serious?

I’m really confused here…any information on what I should do and know about would be highly appreciated. I am willing to answer any questions. Just please don’t be mean, I’m kind of freaking out here and I’m hoping that what I am having isn’t serious.

I’m taking Tamoxifen after a mastectomy and I developed yeast infection, for the first time in my life. Can the vaginal discharge that Tamoxifen gives me, causes the yeast infection?
Thank you, Estrella

Is there a site that has any pictures? Does yogurt really help prevent yeat infections? How does that work?
They say it should smell like baking bread? I have no idea what that smells like. I dont have any discharge in my underwear. I just noticed that I have some vaginal discharge sometimes, but it seems to come 3-7days before and after my cycle? It does not look like cottage cheese but I can stick my finger in there and some white thin creamy discharge (almost water like) will be on my finger. Is has an odor, but nothing sticky? Actually, smells normal.

Of all the different problems that may affect women’s health, the most common medical condition often seen is a vaginal yeast infection.

One of the trickiest parts of a vaginal yeast infection is that the symptoms are not always obvious to the naked eye. It becomes even more difficult to diagnose sometimes since there are any number of problems that may be producing the symptoms besides the yeast infection.  These symptoms can include:

1. Itching on the inside and outside of the vaginal area. If you find yourself with a persistent itch that just stays with you all day it may be time to go see a doctor about it. They can help you treat the issue and rule out the possibility of something more severe.

2. A burning sensation throughout the vaginal area is a very common symptom. This burning feeling is often caused by the infection itself irritating the skin. If you experience burning along with the previously mentioned itching this is a major warning sign that you may have a problem.

3. Pain while having intercourse or urinating is another symptom you may encounter. During an infection this will probably be the most common symptom you will deal with throughout the day. Again, it is important to speak with your doctor if these symptoms are occurring for you as it may indicate a more serious issue.

4. A White or off colored vaginal discharge may appear. This may be the most noticeable of symptoms you can experience, but just know that not all women will experience this. If you do happen to experience this you can expect a creamy, odorless substance often described as having a curd like texture.

Due to the commonality of a vaginal yeast infection among women it is very important that you know what the warning signs are. More importantly you will be eliminating the possibility that the vaginal yeast infection symptoms belong to another problem when you visit your doctor. If you were to find yourself experiencing any of these symptoms be sure to speak with a medical professional as soon as possible. The faster you take action to treat the infection, the faster you can get back to living your life.
