usually this is a sign of infection.. maybe yeast infection, which is pretty common. It is a fungus that grows when warm and wet are around. There is creams for this available now without a prescription at your local pharmacopoeia, or even grocery store. Keep the area clean and dry and wear cotton underwear, and eat yogurt, that's suppose to help too. avoid tampons and use pads instead. hope this helps.. If not go to the doctor, it may be some other infection..

Yeah it sounds like an infection. See your doctor immediately. Don't worry about it. It may just be a yeast infection.
Don't go get any over the counter just yet........You do so only if you have been diagnosed with a yeast infection in the past.

Sounds like a yeasr infection but it might not be. Do you have discharge? If its white and clumpy then its probably a yeast infection but it could also be BV(bacterial vaginosis) or an array of other things. See your doctor,they see it all the time and weve all had one now and then, even the doctors themselves(the women)

Does the odor smell like bread? Sounds like you have a yeast infection. You can treat it with over the counter medication.

Yeast infection, they are more irritating than anything. Go to the drug store and get some Monistat and use that. Should clear it up in a couple of days. If not, see a doctor.

OOH, Girl you got an infection! Depending on if there is some sort of discharge, it could be several things. Best bet would be to see a doctor before it gets worse :(

You most probably have thrush. Its nothing to be embarrased about, go into the chemist and ask for canestan duo or similar. the cream soothes the itch and the pill clears up the infection, it will be gone within hours, its great!!

Visit your doctor, there's nothing to be affraid, they are professionals and... "they look at bodies the way one butt cheek sees the other" It sounds like an infection. Don't automedicate.
