PLEASE listen to me. I have said this so many times I can repeat it in my sleep. While everyone answering is doing so with the best of intentions, NEVER listen to what anyone says on these forums when your personal health is involved. None of these people has a license to practice medicine on Yahoo.
While most suggestions will probably be right and will work, ever human body is different and it is important that the correct diagnosis is made before starting any type of treatment. PLEASE go to your doctor, a minor emergency clinic, or your local public health clinic before doing anything. At least talk to one of these professionals. A misdiagnosis with the problem you are describing can have lasting negative effects.
Please take care of yourself properly and have a Merry Christmas!

Yeast infections are NOT STDs. They are just an imbalance of the "good" bacteria and the "bad" bacteria which are BOTH naturally found in the vagina. Almost every woman will experience at least one yeast infection during their lifetime.
If you don't want to see the doctor you can buy some over the counter medications from CVS or another drug store. Monistat cream can help cure a yeast infection. There are also AZO pills that can help cure a yeast infection.
You also might want to buy some yogurt. Yogurt has active live culture in it which can help get rid of and prevent a yeast infection.
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

I know you said you don't want to go to the doctor,
but guess what? He or She is the only one qualified to really get rid of your proplem surely and quickly. Playing guessing games with your health is never a good idea for ANY reason
and you could be missing something very serious. And while it gets worse, you're playing games. So do the right thing and go see the doc!!!

Go to any drugstore and there's a variety of creams and brands you can buy, such as monistat, vagistat and others.

Add two tablespoons of "bicarbonate of soda" to your bath water.
