You definitely need to be evaluated, but the chances of this being something life threatening are very slim. As long as your symptoms don't change or get worse, you should be OK to wait until Monday. Make sure you get in on Monday, though. The discharge you are describing does not necessarily sound like the kind produced by a yeast infection. While it could be a yeast infection, other vaginal infections, such as Trichomoniasis and Bacterial Vaginosis will also cause discharge, redness, and itching. Nothing over the counter will help with those.
If you develop a fever, bloody discharge, vomiting, nausea, or abdominal pain that won't go away, get to the emergency room as soon as you can. I hope this helps!

It is likely that you just have a yeast infection, no doctor needed. You need to go and buy some of the medication at the pharmacy though. Yeast infections do cause itching and you probably have been aggravated with it and now it is swollen and red. The medication will stop the itching almost instantly. If you have never bought the medication before there are several differant brands and types. It's okay to buy the generic brands, but I would buy at least the 3 day application since you are itching so bad.

no longer having intercourse in months, alongside devoid of discharge, would not advise you're out of the woods. You okay would have the beginnings of countless STI's or infections. i might circulate to the physician if I have been you, as in case you capture something like that throughout time, you may desire to get medicine to end it from progressing-plus that is extra effective to appreciate what that is extremely than freaking out approximately it. i became into in an identical subject a month or 2 in the past with a mysterious bump-seems it became into basically a pimple! Lol :o) solid success!

You're itchy and red with a swollen vagina. That sounds like an infection. Sex could have caused it. I would go check it out monday. Gather more information about it. Then, you can inform your doctor about the whole story.

go to store and buy one of those kits to see if you have a yeast infection. If you don't see a dr. today its only going to get worse.
