So i was treated for a yeast infection by a rx from my doc...?

Question

i thought i had a yeast infection, so i treated it OTC. when that didn't work i went to my doctor and she said it was defiantly a yeast infection and rx me a one dose of diflucan. that was monday and now it's saturday and things are worse! i think it might be spreading to my a**s too!

the other thing i'm worried about it that i slept with a guy about 3 weeks ago and the condom broke...now i'm all freaked out that i have an STD. i told my doctor this.

is it possible that diflucan not work for me? is a yeast infection or yeast infection-like symtoms a symtom of an STD?

Answer 1

Normally difflucan is all that is needed. Its rare for that to happen. Get yourself cheked out just incase!

Good luck

Answer 2

Hi,

There are so many causes of yeast infections which is why so many people get them unfortunately! But there are ways of getting rid of it. When I first got it I went straight to the doctors and he suggested creams etc which got rid of it at first but it kept coming back no matter how many different products I tried.

In the end I did some research on the internet and found a website with a completely natural way to get rid of it for good and, touch wood, I haven't had it again since! I hope this works for you too!  If you want to give it a try you can find it at http://www.QuickYeastInfectionCure.com

Don't worry - I found a great cure and you will too!

Answer 3

I don't know why your doctor did not check but you have to do a vaginal swab to determine the infective organism and you have to do it very quick to start treatment and sop the spreading of infection.

Answer 4

Did your doctor do any tests to confirm if it was an yeast infection?? If so then maybe you need something stronger Rx. But if you have not had a pap exam and STI/ STD check in the last few weeks maybe you should get that done too. STI's like Trich or Chlamydia can have similar symptoms.
