Well I started having itchness, and burning with a rash in my vaginal area and itchness in my anal area a week after I last had sex with my boyfriend I went to a gyn center and they toke my urine and did a vaginal fluid check up and then told me I had a yeast infection but I used the medication they gave me and it doesn't seem to go away after 5 days of last using it and I still have the itching and rash in the vaginal area what should I do?

Hey

You should go back to the gyn and get tested for std's. It isn't uncommon for cylmidia or gonnoreah to be mistakened for a yeast or uti. So to be on the safe side I would got get tested for std's.

Sometimes chlamdydia and other std's also cause yeast infections. And it could just be that the particular medication that they gave you does not work for you. But you should definately go back for further testing just to be on the safe side.
