Vaginal Yeast Infection Symptoms

By admin On Under Vaginal Yeast Infection Symptoms

Yuck – what is that? How can you tell if your getting a yeast infection?

Most medical types say that you should go to a doctor to get it diagnosed the first time, and then once you know what you’re looking for, you can figure it out yourself the next time and respond appropriately.

I used to ignore this advise, but more and more evidence is accumulating that women often misdiagnose themselves as having a yeast infections when they really have something else.

This is bad because you might have a more serious problem that isn’t getting treated while you mess around with yeast treatments. Even worse, if you use an over-the-counter treatment for yeast and you don’t really have yeast infection, you might be creating your own personal race of drug-resistant super-yeast, and next time you have a real yeast infection it could be hard to get rid of.

A doctor can tell for sure if you have a yeast infection by taking a swab and looking in a microscope. Most of us can’t do this at home, but sometimes you can tell by the feel, look, and smell that you have a yeast infection. If your symptoms don’t match this list, or you are confused or uncertain, go see a doctor if at all possible.

H2>Yeast Infection Cause

A vaginal yeast infection is caused by the fungus candida. Candida is a microorganism that’s normally present in your vagina, along with bacteria. Your vagina naturally contains a balanced mix of yeast and bacteria. Lactobacillus bacteria produce acid, which discourages overgrowth of yeast in the vagina. The problem occurs when the disruption of the healthy balance results in an overgrowth of yeast. Too much yeast in your vagina can lead to vaginal itching, burning, and other classic signs and symptoms of a yeast infection.

Overgrowth of yeast can result from:

■ Antibiotic use, which leads to a decrease in the amount of lactobacillus bacteria in your vagina and a change in your vaginal pH that allows yeast to overgrow
■ Pregnancy
■ Uncontrolled diabetes
■ Impaired immune system
■ Anything that changes the type and amount of bacteria normally present in the vagina, such as douching or irritation from inadequate vaginal lubrication

Moslyt, yeast infection results from a type of candida fungus known as Candida albicans. However, a different type of candida fungus might be the cause of symptoms. Candida albicans responds well to typical treatments for yeast infections. Other types of candida, however, sometimes respond poorly to conventional therapies and may require more aggressive treatment.

A yeast infection can be sexually transmitted, especially through oral-genital sexual contact. However, yeast infection isn’t considered a sexually transmitted disease because it happens in celibate women and the candida fungus is naturally present in the vagina.

Symptoms of vaginal yeast infection range from mild to severe and include:

■ Itching and irritation in the vagina and at that entrance to the vagina (vulva)
■ A burning sensation, especially during intercourse or while urinating
■ Redness and swelling of the vulva
■ Vaginal pain and soreness
■ Thick, white, odor-free vaginal discharge with a cottage cheese appearance

Recognizing other infections

There are other nasty infections besides yeast that can sometimes affect you, and it’s helpful to know the symptoms of all of them so you can be really sure before you go treat yourself for a yeast infection you might not have.

* Urinary tract infections, or UTIs, are due to bacteria infecting the urethra rather than the vagina. UTIs can be fairly easily distinguished from vaginal infections by a host of symptoms, including pain or burning when urinating, blood or mucus in urine, needing to urinate often, pain or pressure in back or lower abdomen, and a fever or chills, all of which are typical of UTIs but not yeast infections.

If you think you might have a UTI, don’t mess around or take it lightly: you definitely need to go see a medical professional, because the infection can travel up past the bladder, causing kidney damage.

*A bacterial infection can feel a lot like a yeast infection if the vulval area is itchy or painful. unlike a yeast infection, the discharge can be dark yellow, green, or brown. And it won’t smell like bread: it can smell like fish or something rotting, particularly after you have sex. If you think you might have a bacterial infection, or if you’re not sure, get your diseased self to a medical professional, sister. The main treatment is prescription antibiotics.
