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.

my discharge is sometimes yellow or white, and sticks 2 my knickers and is a bit hard. Though it is smooth and is not clumpy. Do i have an infection?




Hey girlie,

You're probably catching it after it dries - when it dries, it could appear yellow and/or even kinda crusty. That's totally normal! Are you itching like crazy down there? Does it smell worse than normal, like kinda fishy? Is the discharge clumpy, like cottage cheese consistency? If not, rest easy - it's probably totally fine! Smile

Okay this is really embarrassing but I don't know who else to ask. In my hair down there there is a hard spot of hair. I was like freaking out so I kind of moved it with a clean sock, and it's like all skin and possibly a hole?? I don't know! What is this????




Hey girl! 

Since I'm not a doctor, I don't want to give you info that could lead you in the wrong direction. I'd ask my mom or a doc about this sitch - they'd probably give you a more reliable guess as to what's going on. xoxox
