ahhhhhhhhhhh

The best way to describe the look of it is it looks like you have a white or cream colored layer of raised scum on your tongue sometimes on the roof of your mouth, gums and back of your throat and typically you cant brush it off. It can be pain full and bleed if brushing the area


If you’ve done the certain amount of days and you think you still have the yeast infection, it’s best to see a doctor.

It may just be normal vaginal discharge though. If it has no odor or isn’t causing any burning or itchiness, you’re fine.

Not from an uncircumcised man, but from some men.

Although they tell you yeast isn’t something you can catch, I NEVER had a yeast infection at all until I had unprotected sex for the first time with my second boyfriend. A week later, I had my first yeast infection, and I have got them regularly ever since (that was nearly 10 years ago).

Yes, he was uncircumcised, but so was my first boyfriend, who I had unprotected sex with.

However, no.1 was clean and no. 2 wasn’t the best at all that, howevr much I insisted. So I tend to think it is more a matter of how clean they keep themselves and whre they have been in the past – whether they have yeast on their penis because they have been with another girl that got yeast infections etc.

And as another answerer said, the mouth it actually a common trigger for yeast infections – you are significantly more likely to get them if your partner performs oral sex on you.

For the past 8 months I’ve gotten yeast infections every month after my period. I go to the Dr., they prescribe Diflucan and send me on my way. But there has to be something wrong. I know this isn’t normal. Has anyone else experienced this? What are my treatment options?

A little Hx: Im not pregnant…do not have HIV as these are the causes of some recurring yeast infections. For this to happen every month after my period maybe it is a Ph Balance issue??

Any help would be appreciated. Im at my witts end.

Yeast infections can be passed back and forth between sex partners. Your partner should also be treated.

If you choose to eat yogurt every day for the infections, it should be the plain, unflavored kind, as the others tend to have added sugar, which will aggravate the yeast infection. Personally, I can’t stand the taste of unflavored yogurt, so I take acidophilus pills. They can be found in the vitamin section of the store.

Also, you may want to be checked for diabetes, as yeast infections are also a symptom for that.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Your diet will play a role in recovery. You should cut back on sweets and soda, and any foods containing yeast, such as breads, doughnuts, and beer.

Call me old fashioned but I totally hate going to the Doctors for this kind of thing. So I was wondering if there was anything that I have at home could help. I know you can buy treatments over the counter now days but they are so expensive and messy.

I am copying from a book;
Cut down on sugar, and wheat products. Avoid whole grain breads. Eat yogurt with active L. Acidophilus cultures.
I used this advice before and I know it works.
Hope this helps.

I know that swimming with a yeast infection is perfectly fine, but my doctor prescribed this external cream for me and I have to use it every morning, and every night. I’m 14, by the way. I usually put it on right before school, then leave it for the rest of the day. I have pool in the morning tomorrow… What should I do? I’m not going home for lunch so I can’t put it on there either. And I want to go swimming. So should I just put it on afterschool around 5, or…?

Yes put on when you come home from school

i have had milky white stuff coming out of my vagina lately.. i have never had sex i’m only 16 .. is this a yeast infection or what?.. what should i do?

If it is really smelly then is probably is. You don’t have to have sex to get one. I once got one having a pap smear. Could also be from tampons. If you are too afraid to go the doctor you could try douching it with a mix of white vinegar and water using a syringe (but not with a needle in it. Like what you give medicine to babies with. You can get big ones from the chemist). After a few days it should clear.


No but it could harm the fetus if you are pregnant. Be careful.

has anyone takin probiotic supplements to help yeast infections such as culturelle? But how would taking these pills by mouth take care of things down there if they arnt connected?

I dont use any pills or anything I eat Yogurt and if its bad I put plain Yogurt on like a cream….but when you eat it the active stuff in yogurt come out your butt and then climbs into the vagina area…I would love to tell you the name but im not sure what they call it…..anyways moral to my answer it probably does the same thing.
