Question 1

i started treatment for a yeast infection. it has been 2 days and i've noticed that my clitoris is white. it doesn't itch, but is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Discoloration: A white discoloration of the vulvar skin and itching makes me think that you may have a skin condition and not yeast. You need to get re-evaluated and ask the dr if you could have lichen sclerosis.  This condition is treated different than a yeast infection.

Question 2

really itchy vulva, clitoris and thighs, had treatment for yeast infection which hasn't worked what else could this be?

Accepted Answer

Pruritis: This mean itching and it could be due to anything.  Would check first on the potential for your reacting to medications you may have been using to treat the yeast infection, but the best thing to do would be to see your doctor and have them do a thorough history and exam and diagnose you appropriately.  Best wishes that this clears up quickly.

Question 3

i just started my period yesterday. i'm itchy but only on the clitoris area. it gets red and inflamed. is this a yeast infection?

Accepted Answer

Yeast is possible: Candida (yeast) vaginal infections can behave like this, but  there is no reliable self test and you&#x27;ll need to be professionally examined to know. Or if mild and no visible sores or blisters, you could try an over-the-counter yeast product (miconazole, clotrimazole, or any product with active incredient ending in &quot;azole&quot;). For sure see your doctor if this doesn&#x27;t clear it up within 3-4 days.

Question 4

tested negative for stis. diagnosed yeast infection by gynaecologist. can yeast infection cause redness and irritation/sensitivity to clitoris?

Accepted Answer

: Yes, this is typical for yeast -- and STDs rarely cause such symptoms.

Question 5

could this be a yeast infection even though i have not experienced itching? i recently discovered i have little tiny bumps on my clitoris. they are not red or white they are the same color as my skin down there. also it is kind of bumpy inside my vaginal

Accepted Answer

Without : Without examining you, it's hard to tell exactly what's going on.  You should give your doctor a call for an examination.  The tiny bumps could be something more concerning that a yeast infection such as genital warts.  Good luck!

Question 6

is a red irritated clitoris signs of yeast infection?

Accepted Answer

If could be: If it’s your 1st possible yeast infection or you aren’t  sure if it’s yeast – see your dr. Symptoms of a yeast infection may include: burning, redness ; itching of the vulva; burning with urination ; vaginal intercourse ; a clumpy, white, vaginal discharge with no odor. Sometimes the discharge isn’t apparent.

Question 7

diagnosed by doctor i have yeast infection. can it cause the clitoris to look red and dry(wrinkly)? tested negative for sti/diabetes. and does a negative sti means negative hpv?

Accepted Answer

: If  the area is involved in the infection, yes though it is uncommon. Keep the clitoral area clean. STI is a broad term  including many diseases  and testing for HPV may or may not be included depending on the lab. you have to ask your MD.  Also if clitoral area not better after a week or so.

Question 8

i treated my yeast infection with diflucan (fluconazole) 150mg it has been 13days why do i still itch. should l be taking another treatment.?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: This problem can only be solved by seeing your doctor and being evaluated face-to-face.  After a thorough examination, your doctor should be able to tell you what's wrong and what to do about it.

Question 9

i got treated for a yeast infection and stds just to be safe it's been 2 days symptoms still the same but now have large hard bump near clitoris?

Accepted Answer

Need an exam : If there is a large bump in that area you need to be seen for an exam to determine the cause and treatment. That would not be caused by a recent yeast infection.

Question 10

my vagina has been feeling sore during sex for 5 months now. i get lubricated and wet before sex, i still feel sore after lubricating. ive treated any possible infection from yeast infection to std but the pain persists. cause and treatment please?

Accepted Answer

Vulvodynia?: Yeast still is possible; some cases are resistant to the standard treatments. Or perhaps you have idiopathic vulvodynia, i.e. vulvar pain without obvious explanation. Keep working with your gynecologist. Good luck.
