It might not be due to the antibiotics, so you should certainly talk to your doctor and begin treatment for the yeast infection.

I don't have a doctor right now, that's why I figured I would ask on here first. I am not diabetic, I'm not a back to front wiper, my husband and I haven't had sex in well over a month, I don't use douches and harsh soaps, I only wear cotton undies and no thongs anymore, and I usually air dry after showering. I typically get one a year so I know I have to be gentle with her. So, lets say (hypothetically) if it were from the antibiotics; if I treat it now, could it just come right back with the the next week of antibiotics? Thanks

I have no idea. How could the antibiotics be causing it? By killing bacteria in your vagina, thus allowing more yeast to grow? If that's the case then yes, treating it now will probably just result with you getting another yeast infection. But if there is some other cause, you may just be giving yourself a week of torture you don't need.

How did you get antibiotics without a doctor?

went to the ER for incredible fever and pain throughout my body. Found out I had the kidney infection and they prescribed antibiotics for me. Yes, antibiotics will sometimes cause women to have yeast infections.

I have moved this back to the womens conditions because it is talking about a yeast infection. Not a kidney problem.

I suggest that you treat the yeast infection now. It can become very painful.

To help in preventing it from returning, you should eat active culture. It is the good bacteria that we need in our system. They come in many yogurts (just look for live culture on them) Or you can go to a health store and buy them. They can come in packets to mix with food or in pill form. They should be stored in their refrigerator.

Note she said to eat the yogurt, not stick it up your vagina!!!

Well we did have a woman on here advising women with yeast infections to put yogurt in their vaginas
