Vaginal Yeast infection! Any home remedies/ over the counter medicines?

June 19th, 2009 by Mara

OK, about a week back, i noticed some thick, creamy white discharge from my vagina. It did not have any odor or anything, but was a lot.
Then a few days back, i started my period and then on the 3rd day, it started to itch. I thought it was a rash and applied rash ointment around it. Not inside though! the itching reduced, but it is still there! What can i do? I have heard that applying yogurt helps. Is that true? any other remedy or over the counter medicine?

P.S: i became sexually active about a month back, so it could be an STD. But both me and my partner were virgins. Is it something serious? Should i speak to a gyno or will yogurt work?

    <div class="content">At times even when you're a virgin, diseases can be transmitted orally. Simply because of microscopic blood particles in your mouth.



    Also, if you wear a lot of thongs, that can cause an infection due to the constant flossing back and forth from your anus to your vaginal opening. There can be a lot of bacteria transmitted from area to area. This can be a problem, so make sure to at least wear a more complete underwear, and make sure they're cotton. Cotton allows for your private areas to receive air and reduce the probability of getting another yeast infection.



    Other from that, make sure you see gynecologist just because they know what's best, and to fully determine if it is a STD or hygiene/vaginal bacteria issue.</div></div>

    <div class="content">A yeast infection such as thrush is extremely common in females and can be brought on by antibiotics, tight clothing, stress, medications, illness, birth control pills.



    There's plenty of medications available over the counter from your pharmacy, Canesten is a good one, just one tablet and it clears but there's also a 'duo' pack of the tablet and the cream to relieve the itchiness.



    Here's a link that will give you more information.

    Yoghurt can work but it's very messy.



    If both of you were virgins there's no chance of an STD.</div></div>

    <div class="content">No it can't be STD but do check with doctor for examination.



    Just ask a pharmacist for help and see what she/he can provide for you. But the best way to deal with that is pure dieting and thats it.</div></div>

    <div class="content">No do not put yogurt in your vagina or around it. You can go to Walgreen's or any other local store and you can buy medication for your yeast infection.There are several different brands.</div></div>

    <div class="content">You're right, yoghurt is a well known fighter of yeast problems but I suggest you just talk to your doctor, just for your own peace of mind. Might as well start now since you are no longer a virgin.

    Have your first pap test at the same time for safety reasons too.

    Good luck.</div></div>

    <div class="content">It would be very unlikely to be STD if you were both virgins but I would have that checked out. If it is a yeast infection you could try Caprylic Acid from the health food store. But if it is a real bad yeast infection you are better to go to the doctor and have it checked out.</div></div>

    <div class="content">I hated using the yogurt--and I can't say it worked for me. Personally, I thought only a man doctor would even think of suggesting yogurt in the vagina. Good Grief.



    You can get Canasten over-the-counter. It can be either a cream, or a pessary (small suppository for inside the vagina) and a tablet. I use the combo one and it works.</div></div>
