i think i may have a yeast infection,i wasn't sure until today, but the last two days or so, i have been real itchy and it burns when i urinate. i think that is a yeast infection i have never had one before. my question is, the day all this started i had intercourse (with a condom) but it hurt real bad at first (no i'm not a virgin lol) but today i noticed that area hurts an awful lot and when i went to the bathroom i wiped and there were spots of blood on the toilet paper, i thought maybe i was getting my period, but it's not that, what else could it be? did i maybe get ripped somehow when we had sex? please help!

It sounds like yeast to me. There can be blood with a yeast infection too, if its bad enough. I would either go to the doc, or Id get a home yeast kit. Have you been on an anti biotic lately? That will cause yeast too. Ive lived with yeast overgrowth for the past 5 yrs, and believe me, most likely you had it before you had sex (and the condom, AND the sex) irratated it. Good luck.

you probably have a bacterial infection alot of symptoms of a yeast infection, but you will bleed a little when you have sex b/c it irritates your well... insides. Take some antibiotics but you should go to the doctor and get tested for clamidea also. I wouldn't take monistat b/c your bleeding. If it is a severe yeast infection monistat wont help. Try vagisil around the outside area and when you pee, get like a ketchup squirter thing (CLEAN) and splash clean water on your privates after you pee, it will help kee the pain and the infection away. Good luck!

There are a few possibilities here,the first one is that you could have an infection,anything from Pelvic inflammation,to Bacterial vaginosis,and you can only be diagnosed by having a vaginal culture taken.So dont delay making a doctors appointment,dont wait because it can spread and become even more of a problem.
The second one is that you are having an allergic reaction to the condom either the latex or the lubricant. All of these things have to be carefully evaluated by a liscensed medical doctor. Good luck.

From the description of your symptoms, it is possible that you have a vaginal infection known as bacterial vaginosis. This is a common condition, estimated to affect between ten and twenty percent of women. Changes in the nature and number of organisms within the vagina lead to a reduction in acidity and a consequent increase in the growth of infective bacteria, e.g. Gardnerella vaginalis. The infection is important, as it may increase the risk of early, pre-cancerous changes occurring in the neck of the womb or cervix. When present during pregnancy, it is linked to an increased likelihood of pre-term birth. Patients often complain of a thin discharge, which has a characteristic fishy smell, although the infection can be symptom free. Bacterial vaginosis is usually cleared up by the prescription of a single 2gm dose of metronidazole antibiotic.
Other vaginal infections may be associated with an unusual odour, itching and discharge. Discuss things with your doctor and they will be able to assess your condition and arrange treatment accordingly

It probably is a yeast infection because of the itching. You probably scratched yourself raw while sleeping. I suggest a visit to your doctor since you have never had a yeast infection before and let them diagnose it. You don't have to do anything to get a yeast infection, it is just a bacterial imbalance, and has an easy cure.

you should consult a real doctor for some cream. It could be a yeast infection or even a water infection. Safer to see a doc and find out for sure. They can get pretty nasty

Sounds like you were not properly lubricated enough to have sex and by using the condom (which is great) it caused a lot of friction, the reason for the pain. I'm sure you caused some tissue to tear which is causing the spotting.

It might be a urinary tract infection and a yeast infection, look up the syptoms for both but blood and pain seem to me to be a UTI.

You probably have a urninary tract infection, I had one once, it hurt SO bad! Best bet is to go to the doc and get some antibiotics, or just drink a buttload of cranberry juice,water,and gatorade

I think its a rip from intercourse. Now it's healing and healing tissue itches. Give yourself through the weekend. If the you're still itching Monday then it's a Yeasty Beasty.
