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

Hello,

I am looking for some tips that works on yeast infection prevention. Yeast infection is a big problem for some people, men, women..

Whats your best methods on treatment?

Eat yogurt, which seems to keep it at bay

I see the gyn every three months, and every time I go they say I have a yeast infection? I honestly keep down there clean, take regular baths and showers, I dnt douche because I heard douche can cause that, If I have sex its with a condom and I take a shower immediately after sex plus the doctor told me yeast infection is not in relationship having sex. What is the problem? Is this natural?

No, I do not.

Yeast infections don’t go away by themselves. Washing is not enough. You need to treat it.
For starters, eat yogurt every day, it really helps. Add some natural vinegar to a tub of warm water and sit in it.
And ask your pharmacy for some over-the-counter treatment.

okay so i went to the gynocolagist(sp) a month agoo, im 16 btw. and she said i had a yeast infection, a minor one though. so i got medicine, i used the monistat 3 days one and it didnt work. so i got another monistat 3 days one. like idk if its just some common discharge, cuz my docter said most girls get discharge. or if its still the yeast infection.

It could just be discharge cut out the caffeine for awhile drink lots of water if clears up it was an infection of it stays the some it’s norm for you age.

I have a yeast infection, which I bought clotrimazole 3 day treatment for. I finished the treatment, but still have some itching and burning in my vaginal area. I have tried the vinegar treatment, but it doesnt seem to work. I have been taking acidophilus supplements to help combat the problem, and it seems I read somewhere that these geltabs can be placed in the vagina. Is this possible?

Yes, there are acidophilus suppositories for the vagina.

I have a reoccurring yeast infection, I know I will need to see a doctor but I am temporarily living away from my normal doctor and don’t have insurance, I took this semester off of school. So for the next few weeks until I can get my schedule out to my insurance company, I need some suggestions or a quick fix. What is the best or strongest solution to this problem?

I’ve tried at home remedies, they lasted temporarily, and I’m extremely uncomfortable and aggravated.

Thanks in advance for any answers!

One product that is over the counter that you can try is Monistat but I would recommend the 7 day treatment if they have that available in the store. The 7 day treatment will help to ensure at trying to get rid of this.

I know that sounds kind of weird, but I ended up getting a yeast infection after I first had sex. Anyone else have this problem? A few of my friends that I talked to said they had the same problem, but it was just because your body’s not use to it. Serious answers only!

I’ve heard of that getting a yeast infection just from sex, but you can also get yeast infections from what you’re doing before sex- putting things with sugar down there (flavored lubes, flavored condoms, foods, etc.) causes yeast infections. If you used any of those things, that could explain why.

i have been sexually active with my boyfriend and we don’t use condoms because i am allergic to the latex. Every time we finish having sex i get this burning and itching from my vagina and even as i go to urinate it burns and hurts really badly. i also get pain from my lower back and abdomen. and this raw smell with my discharge.I also realize i have a rash around my vaginal hole. What do you think is the problem? Is it a yeast infection?

ask your doctor

Kayla L IF YOU THINK YOU HAVE A YEAST INFECTION. TALL YOUR MOTHER.

my little sister has a yeast infection she took pills for it and they worked but now she is off them and she said it wasnt itchy no more ***but nowwww!! she has stings and little itches out of no where what does it mean and when does it end!?!!? how will you no it’s over!?!?!?

you need to see a doc. you can do unrepairable damage to your self. you could become infertile. If it was her first one she was supposed to see a doc anyway. yeast infections can be easily confused with a lot of other things
