Could I have a yeast infection?


 

Check these out, too...

  • Will my yeast infection go away by itself?
  • Why do my fingers turn red when I'm cold?
  • Do guys only care about chest size?
  • Why is my tummy so rumbly?
  • What stinks down south?
For the past six months, I have been experiencing intense itching and burning “down there." I also have a white, thick discharge recently. What is wrong? Could this be a yeast infection?


Hate to break it to ya, babe, but intense itching and burning as well as white, cottage cheese-like discharge are the big symptoms of a yeast infection You might also experience redness and swelling around your vagina and vulva as well as pain while you pee. Not all symptoms have to be present, but you should definitely head to your doctor for a professional diagnosis and treatment.


Chances are your doc will need to do a pelvic exam to make sure you have a yeast infection, and will probably take a fluid sample. Once he (or she) knows for sure that a yeast infection is the culprit, you’ll be put on antifungal meds to clear it up. A yeast infection isn’t a big deal and it’s incredibly common, so you’ve got nothing to be embarrassed about. You just need to get it taken care of!

Hi um. Al my friends make fun of me cause i got my period ( they r all guy friends) and i get so embarassed and turn BRIGHT red. Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
XD Brittany




Hey Brittany,

Just try to remind yourself that your period is normal. You getting your period is normal. You're going to be getting it every month for a long time! Hopefully, remembering these things will calm you down and make it a less embarrassing experience for ya. Every girl goes through it - it's not something they should single you out about, so it's not something you should feel awkward about either!

MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD I NEED HELP!! I was wondering if you could wear a pad in the pool.... i have done in before, but only once, and nothing happened. but i wanted to know if it was a bad thing to do. Thank you

Hey girly,
It doesn't really do too much in terms of stopping the blood. I wouldn't recommend it. Try a tampon if you really want to stop the blood while in the pool.

MODMODMOD Hey just wondering, is it true that if you punch someone's boob then it doesn't grow for 28 days? I've heard rumors of it, but just wondering. Thanks! Smile

 

Hey chica, I've never heard that before lol. I don't think it's true though. Smile

Hey girls, mhmm sounds like something might be going on down there. I reccommend you tell a parent so they can scheldue you a doctor's appointment. The doctor will be able to solve everything! Smile
