Accepted Answer

Try yeast meds: simply try an over the counter yeast medication at any pharmacy. You are describing a classic yeast infection. If it does not hep then schedule a visit for testing.

Question 2

cottage cheese discharge and vaginal itching?

Accepted Answer

Yeast infection: Vaginal itching/burning and a cottage cheese-like discharge could be signs of a vaginal yeast infection. Treatment = over the counter yeast infection medication (like miconazole).  If the symptoms persist after this treatment, or if there is pain, then the patient should be evaluated by a doctor since it could mean a different diagnosis.

Question 3

what could cause a cottage cheese discharge?

Accepted Answer

Yeast: Yeast can causes this type of discharge.  Often accompanied by itching and redness, even swelling.  Pain can be associated as well yeast vaginitis.  Not all thick discharge means yeast, however.  Just thick discharge alone can be normal.

Question 4

missed birth control and doubled up, could this be the cause of pink cottage cheese discharge only seen when i wipe.

Accepted Answer

Maybe: Breakthrough bleeding is very common when you miss a pill.  It can look like pink staining.  The cottage cheese appearance can be associated with other conditions such as a yeast infection.  If there are no other symptoms, you could wait for the bleeding to stop and see if the discharge returns to normal.  If you are itching, treat for yeast.  If not, and it stays, get checked.

Question 9

i don't remember my last menstral cycle so i can't tell if i missed it . i was experiencing some thick like cottage cheese discharge , it's thin now??

Accepted Answer

Sounds like: a vaginal yeast infection. Try Monistat or  vaginal Clotrimazole. ( Gyne-Lotrimin ).

Question 10

i have been having itchy vagina, labia, vulva on and off for 2 weeks. did vagisense test, cloudy discharge was on it(im day 11 of my cycle). negative for bacteria. i don't have cottage cheese discharge so i'm not sure if i should just try canestan?

Accepted Answer

: By mentioning clotrimazole (Canestan) you apparently suspect a yeast infection, and your symptoms indeed are typical for yeast. If discharge is present, it can often have a "cottage cheese" appearance, but usually there isn't much discharge at all. It makes sense to try clotrimazole (or any other product with an "azole" active ingredient). But see your doctor right away if it doesn't seem to work.
