I had a yeast infection and I took medicine yesterday that the doctor gave me so I thought it went away because it felt better and the symptoms went away. I had sex today and now it REALLY HURTS, it is very painful and very sore and hurts to pee. I took two tylenol but is there anything else I should do to feel better?

Try reading the instructions and following them! It takes 7-10 days for a yeast infection to clear up regardless of the type of medicine you use for it, so don't have sex during that time.

This doesn't answer your question, but just so you know... It is possible for your guy to get a yeast infection from you. The symptoms are not usually as noticible as for women, but you may want to refrain from sex until you're sure it's gone. BTW, it sounds more like you have a urinary tract infection than a yeast infection, or possibly both. You may want to go back to the doctor.

Sounds like you might have a urinary tract infection since you have pain with urination. Head to Urgent care and get this checked out. Next time though wait at least 24 hours before you have sex after taking the one day pill since it takes a while to actually take care of the bacteria.

REFRAIN from sexual intercourse for several days until you are well! Are you trying to give the other half a yeast infection too? Think, people, think.
