How soon can you go swimming after you have a yeast infection? |
I had symptoms of a yeast infection on Tuesday so I bought Monistat-1 and used it. Today I still have symptoms though they aren't as bad. Can I go swimming today, or should I wait for all symptoms to go away? It's a beautiful day and I'm at the beach and I'd love to go in the water. Also, can I prevent getting another yeast infection by putting in a tampon before I go swimming? Do not ever use a tampon unless you have your period. Even with the one day treatments it can take 7 days to clear up. You can go swimming, water won't go up there and make it worse. Just dry off right away, sitting around in a wet bathing suit can cause an infection. Dear Experts, if i have a yeast infection, can I go swimming in the pool, and can I have sex? kaerin, 09.09.05 The Answer: Dear kaerin, It is probably best to avoid inserting anything into the vagina 鈥?including a penis, finger, or tampon 鈥?when a woman has a yeast infection, because this may cause the infection to further irritate the vagina. Swimming is not a problem, but a girl should be sure to thoroughly dry her vulva after getting out of the water. Yeast infections (also called candidiasis) are an overgrowth of yeast that cause vaginal irritation or vaginitis. All healthy women have yeast in their vaginas, but sometimes this yeast grows too much. A woman who thinks she has a yeast infection should visit a clinician for an accurate diagnosis. There are vaginal infections besides yeast that share similar symptoms of itchiness, painfulness, and discharge. Treatments may include either prescription or over-the-counter medication. Hope this information helps! Take care, teenwire.com庐 Editors http://www.teenwire.com/ask/2005/as-2005...
