Is it dangerous to leave a vaginal yeast infection untreated? If it doesn't itch or if it doesn't smell, might it just go away naturally?

Hello, I'm on the second week and seeing definite improvement on my yeast infection symptoms:

Note that: If the yeast infection doesn't respond to over the counter treatment, prescription medication will likely be necessary. Similarly, if the symptoms return after two months of being treated, you should contact the doctor for professional treatment rather than resorting again to home treatment.

If this is the first time you have experienced a yeast infection, you should schedule an appointment to have the condition treated by a doctor instead of resorting to home treatment

Vaginal yeast infection (vulvovaginal candidiasis) is an excess growth of yeast organisms in the vagina. It causes itching, swelling, and pain during urination and intercourse, and produces a thick, white discharge from the vagina.
Although symptoms are bothersome and can cause severe discomfort, yeast infections rarely lead to serious health problems.
Vaginal yeast infection is common among women of childbearing age but can occur in women of any age. Certain factors increase the risk of getting a vaginal yeast infection. These include using antibiotics, birth control pills, hormone replacement therapy, or corticosteroids; being pregnant; douching; and wearing tight-fitting clothes. Immune system problems, diabetes, and other diseases also increase the risk of yeast infections.
Vaginal yeast infections can go away on their own; persistent infections are treated with medications.

Oh girl, just go to the pharmacy and get any 3-5 day cream treatment. It won't go away on it's own .. most likey, it will get much worse! And that's because that yeast is breeding more yeast ... trust me, 28yo ... I've got experience with those fun times!

I don't know if it's good or bad to leave it untreated, but I've had one before to go away on it's own. The last one I had though, I broke down and got some Monistat because of the itching and burning.

Note that:
Any particular Candida species??? Candida glabrata? Candida albicans? You need to be species specific! This answer also depends on where the infection is. In the mouth and esophagus, for example, Nystatin oral suspension is a topical treatment often used to treat oral and esophageal Candidiasis. For vaginal Candidiasis, miconazole (Monistat) is effective and OTC. Systemics such as fluconzaole (Diflucan) are used to treat GI, vaginal, respiratory (Candidal pneumonia), and infections in other sites, and may be combined with topical antifungals. There is no specific treatment for Candidal pneumonia and it's been assumed that systemic, especially IV, antifungals deal with it
