Will my skinny jeans give me a yeast infection?

One day I came home from school and I was wearing a pair of skinny jeans. My mom told me to change. I had a lot of homework to do, so I didn't. She told me later that if I didn't change into something less tight, I would get a vagina infection. Is that true?

 

Your mom is right about this one, babe. Our generation’s penchant for increasingly tight pants has also increased the likelihood that you could get a yeast infection down there. Why? Well, think about it this way: The tighter your clothes fit, the less able your vagina becomes to “air out”. That allows the good bacteria to multiply way too fast, causing not-so-good things to happen.

 

While wearing your skinnies to school probably won’t hurt ya, it’s a good idea to change up your look from day to day, and to change into looser-fitting clothes when you get the chance.

MOD MOD MOD! During science class, I always feel my discharge coming out. But the weird thing is, in science, we are learning about fertilization while it comes out?! Is that weird, or coincidental? Also, when I get my discharge, about how long is it until I get my actual period?

 

Hey girlie, I'm pretty sure that's just pure coincidence and no relation. The time between discharge and your first period varies. Talk to your mom about when she got hers and that'll give you a better idea of when you might get yours.

What is a yeast infection? I think i know what it is but i just want to know for sure what it is...
Thanks

 

Hey pau2000, a yeast infection is a term used when someone is experiencing discomfort down there. It could be itchy, burning or extremely sore. Hope this helps! Xoxo Smile

My sister and her finance is always smooching not just pecks ether
it makes me uncomfortable I tolled them it makes me uncomfortable
But they keep doing it you can hear them kissing to
its so gross I think that kissing should be pirvate not
Just something you do out in the open also my sis says really dirty
Gross stuff sometimes it gets really annoying because I feel like I'm more mature then her
also I get really moody when I'm on my period everyone just really annoys
me and if Somone says something wrong I get very upset how can I calm my nerves?

Hey girl, check out this post called: "Need a breather? 5 excuses for escaping the family madness."  To calm your nerves, take a deep breath- make your exhale last a little bit longer than your inhale.  Finding even just a moment of peace will help you stay calm, cool, and collected.

Take the stairs more than once. When you’re at home, run up and down the stairs three or four times before heading to your room. It’s a sneaky way to stay active.
