is it bad to have a yeast infection? Does it affect your period or having children?

I have had yeast infections since I was a baby, I am now 23...so yes, I have had quite a few of them in my life. First, eating yogurt, drinking milk...any dairy basically can help to where you don't get yeast infections. It will NOT help you if you already have a yeast infection!! Drinking cranberry juice does nothing and has nothing to do with yeast infections, only UTI's.
And yes, it can disrupt periods(yeast in your uterus). It has with me numerous times. If left untreated it can cause other problems down below as well. Such as chronic yeast infections, horrible cramping (like menstrual cramps), and in some rare cases, yes it has caused some fertility probs. Yeast in your vagina travels to your uterus etc. So anyone here who says otherwise has not had any or few yeast infections. Like I said, I have had them since I was a baby....Chronic yeast infections. Which can also be passed to your baby, if you ever got pregnant.
Talk to your GYN, they will tell you all you need to know. Don't go on the internet, half the stuff they say is BS.
Set up an appointment to see your GYN, ok? They have a pill called Diflucan that starts to clear up the infection in about a day. Or, there is Monistat 7. NEVER get anything lower than the 7 day treatment as they are ineffective. You will end up getting it right back. And use it the full 7 days even if you notice it going away. Sorry so long, but had to clarify what some others have been saying. Good Luck!

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

no, not bad at all. There is OC meds that can clear it up. Very common amoung women. Doesn't affect anything. Just very bothersome.

I don't think so either. You can prevent them naturally by eating yogurt or drinking cranberry juice.
