I believe that you for sure have a yeast infection, and that you need to get monistat cream, I think it really does work if you actually do have a yeast infection. If its something more than a yeast infection, then you should go to a Doctor and let them prescribe something for you. I also heard that if you drink cranberry juice then it will decrease the chances of you getting a yeast infection again. Hope this helps, good luck!

A yeast infection produces a discharge that resembles cottage cheese, if you have this go to the store and purchase Monistat, it works wonders, there should also be an external anti itch cream in the box. If you are not sure, see your doctor and he/she will tell you what to do.

sounds like a yeast infection. go see a doctor and they can prescribe an antibiotic that will take it away in 3-5 days. until then, wear cotton panties or wear none at all, dont wear jeans that are too tight, if you go swimming, take your swimsuit off when you get home after. containing moisture down there causes yeast infections. hope this helps! :D

Stop itching. You can apply yogurt and buy over the counter remedies for yeast infections.
Of course seeing a doctor is your best bet. That way you can get a proper diagnosis and treatment.
peace

Go to the doctor, yo! Doc will take a sample, if needed, or take a look... and confirm. It's probably a yeast infection. They will give you a simple thing you inject into your vagina that will kill the fungi.

I'd say go to your doctor, or if you can't go to a pharmacist. You should be able to buy a cream and or pessary called Canestan (goes by this name in the UK). I know its very difficult but try not to itch! Hope you feel better soon

Go to your gynecologist. Until then, try monistat, but remember everything isn't always yeast. It may be BV, also that's why you need to see your gynecologist.

go to a gynocologist or go to a drugstore and get gynolotramin, however its going to burn like mad since you got yourself all raw.
