Itching, sometimes a fowl smell, and white cottage-cheese looking discharge are all symptoms of a yeast infection.. You can by over the counter monistat 7-day, 3-day, or 1-day. Your doctor can also prescribe a one time pill that will get rid of it within 24 hours

Your first yeast infection should ALWAYS be seen by a dr!!! After that you'll be sure each time.Don't take chances with any kind of infection.Once your dr let's you know the symtoms you are experancing IS yeast..you'll know how your body reacts to a yeast infection. Yes what these peeps are saying IS true. But you don't want another type of an infection to go untreated.Could cause more issues.An appointment at Planned Parenthood or something like it is probably the cheapest and easiest way to go, if no health care. Good luck!

Look up yeast infection on a search engine!!
Yeast produces a cheesy like substance from the vagina.
The smell is sicky sweet.
You often have a speckled red rash around your groin area. It is very itchy.
There are OTC creams and inserts you can buy to treat it.
Also try taking acidophilis from a natural food store.
Finally if you doctor agrees you have a yeast infection you can get a one pill treatment that kills it.

I have lived with intestinal yeast overgrowth for 5 yrs, and me and my sisters are all prone to it, so I know the business of yeast.
You will itch, it will hurt to have sex, itll burn, itll have an odor and youll have a creamy, whitish/yellowish discharge. You can also have tiny twingy cramps in your lower stomach.
If you have any of these things, go get a yeast treatment cream from the store. Get the 7 day cream, it works best.
Also, dont eat any breads/anything with yeast....and no sugars. These things feed yeast. Try to eat some yogurt each day too.
Hope this helps.

A lot of itching...I mean a lot. You will also have a discharge that looks like cottage cheese, and possibly an odor. If your not sure, you need to see a doctor to be diagnosed.
