I've never heard of a virus other than a
std down there before! But im sure there
are some that arn't sexually transmitted!
What were your symptoms?

Didn't your doctor tell you the name of
the diease? Ther are a lot of things you
could have. You should call them and ask
the name, then run a search for in on
google or yahoo or whatever your favorite
search engine is. Make sure they tell you
how to spell it right!
Good luck!

A yeast infection is also considered a
sexually transmitted disease. Yeast
infections are very common, and they
usually give you a cream for it. I am
sure that is what it was, nothing to be
worried about. Take the meds they gave
you, and use the cream, it should be gone
in a week

this is the kind of thing that blows my
mind. Your doctor told you that you
have a virus in your vagina. You leave
his/her office without asking anything
about your condition and then come to an
internet message board to ask complete
strangers if they know what you have?
Absolutely unbelievable. These are
things you should have asked your doctor
before leaving! How are we supposed to
know what you've contracted or how long
it'll take for it to go away? Only your
doctor knows and it's your job to ask
questions. If he had diagnosed you with
diabetes or cancer would you have walked
out of the office without knowing the
exact type, treatment options, or
complications? I sure wouldn't. You
need to educate yourself instead of asking
other people to do it for you.

What do you think a health forum is, to
ask questions. Don't make the girl feel
unwanted, that is so rude. Where is your
courtesy?

i don't see anything in my previous post
that says she was "unwanted". I simply
stated that her question would have been
more appropriately directed at her
physician who is aware of her condition
and could better advise her medically.
If that's considered rude, then so be it.
