A vaginal yeast infection is an excess growth of yeast cells in the vagina. Yeast infections are very common in women of childbearing age but can occur at any age. Although they can be uncomfortable, vaginal yeast infections rarely lead to serious health problems.

The most common symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection are:
Vaginal itching
Irritated genital skin
Pain or burning in the genital area with urination or sexual intercourse
In some cases, white vaginal discharge that is usually curdlike and odorless. Some women have no noticeable discharge.

Yeast infections can be treated and cured sometimes with over the counter medications like Monistat. You can also visit your doctor and get some anti fungal medication like fluconazole (brand name: Diflucan).

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) and urinary tract infections (UTI) / bladder infections are also really common in women.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a change in the balance of bacteria that are normally present in the vagina, which can cause bothersome symptoms. The most notable symptom of bacterial vaginosis is an excessive, bad-smelling, grayish-white vaginal discharge. A "fishy" smell, which is usually worse after sex, is a telltale sign of BV.

BV is usually treated and cured with metronidazole (brand name: Flagyl), which needs to be prescribed by your doctor.

A urinary tract infection ususally occurs when germs get into your system through your urethra—the tube that carries urine from your bladder to the outside of your body. The germs that usually cause these infections live in your large intestine and are found in your stool. Once the germs are inside your urethra, they can travel up into your bladder and kidneys and cause an infection.

You may have an infection if you have any of these symptoms:
You feel pain or burning when you urinate
You feel like you have to go often, but not much urine comes out when you do
Your belly feels tender or heavy
Your urine is cloudy or smells bad
You have pain on one side of your back under your ribs
You have fever and chills
You have nausea and vomiting

UTIs can be treated and cured with antibiotics.

over the counter treatments only work the first time. After that, the body becomes immune to it and the yeast infection will go away for about a week and then come back with vengeance. hehe. Yeah, that does sound like a yeast infection, you can get a pill to cure it at Planned Parenthood or at the doctors.

There are multiple infections that a woman can get in her genital regions. Yeast infection are usually very itchy, you may get a clumpy, white discharge with the appearance of cottage cheese, it may also have a yeast like smell to it. Generally when you first get this, you should get the infection confirmed with a doctor and then can treat yourself with one of the over the counter medications. Other infections includ bacterial vaginosisa and STDs such as trichomonas (which has a fishy smell), chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis (may get a sore), and herpes (can develop blister-like vesicles in the genital region). If it resolves on its own after one shower and does not return, its probably not concerning. But if the discharge persists, please see a physician, you may have a transmissible disease.
