Yeast infection or not? what to do? HELP!?


I've read up about them and what i have is similar to the symptoms, but i don't know for sure. Its crazy itchy down there but it itches even more when i itch it, and the more i itch it the more it burns, and when i go to the bathroom, there is chunky floaties in the toilet. I read to see if they go awy on their own and i read that they go away when you begin your period, but i got this the day i finished my period..(which was tuesday the 19th, 2 days ago) help me please!!

Yeah, sounds like a yeast infection. Try an OTC treatment...if it doesn't help the itching in a day or two, call the doctor. Good luck!

Definitely a yeast infection. Go to the pharmacy and get kinesten or monistat, or else there are also such home remedies. Some that I know of are drinking a lot A LOT of cranberry juice, or eating loads of garlic.
Sorry, it's not the funnest thing, but it happens to most women so you're not alone!
Good luck, don't itch it'll get worse =P

Yeah you definitely have one. Everyone recommends Monistat but I went straight to the doctor when I started mine. If you do that, you just have to take one anti-fungal pill and it will go away. No messy cream for weeks like when you use Monistat.

That sounds like a yeast infection, alright. For goodness' sake, go to the drug store and by some monistat! It will go away immediately.

yeah sounds like it i had it before.
buy some monistat
and eat lots of yogurt

Hi there,

Yup you've got a yeast infection alright. If you are a chronic yeast infection sufferer you need to look into Candida and begin to treat it as it's the reason for the yeast infections. There is a free test you can take from my bio box.

There are many things you need to start doing and addressing if you are suffering from a yeast infection. To start, do the following:

1. Wear loose clothing and undergarments, oxygen kills yeast, going commando and wearing nothing down there if possible is even better.

2. Get some unsweetened yogurt and rub it onto a tampon, insert the tampon and do this continually until the yeast infection is gone.

3. Cut out any and all sugar, alcohol and yeast from your diet. All three will promote the infection further.

4. Start drinking cranberry juice, pure not from concentrate with no added sugar, I know this goes against the no sugar thing but the acid content in the cranberries will alter the PH balance of your vagina and cause the yeast to die off.

5. If you can tolerate it, use a raw garlic clove and apply it to the infection, this may burn so dilute it with some olive or coconut oil, both of which can also help eliminate the yeast, especially the coconut.

6. You can also try taking some vitamin B3, many women find their infections resolve quicker when they are taking 300mg/per day.

7. Take a probiotic with at least 50 billion live cells per pill, this is key in redistributing good bacteria throughout your body, and effectively end the yeast infection. You must do this continually until you have eliminated your yeast infections and Candida entirely.

8. Lastly if all else fails, begin adding 2 cups of apple cider vinegar to a bath. Only fill the tub up high enough to submerge your genital area. Stay in the tub for 20-30 minutes at a time.

Hope this helps, the yogurt is the key really, by putting good bacteria directly on the area you will eliminate it quickly. Make sure it is unsweetened and ideally keep an eye out for a variation called Kefir which has even more beneficial bacteria in it to snuff out the infection.

When all is said and done I would suggest you research Candida and take a test to determine if you are suffering from it, as anyone who gets yeast infections has Candida, it's just a matter of how bad it is.
