Question 1

my clitoris hurt after yeast infection. is that normal?

Accepted Answer

Yeast: If you had a yeast infection near or around the clitoris that could cause discomfort. If you see an ulceration, blister or genital sore in that area then see an Obgyn for further testing to see what else may be causing the problem.

Question 3

when insterting yeast infection cream, do i pull both the applicator, and the other stick back out, or does it stay and dislove? my first yeast infection, and directions weren't clear. i need to know before i hurt myself, if i pull both the applicator and

Accepted Answer

To : To answer your question you need to hold the applicator in your hand and gently insert the applicator into your vagina as far as it will go without causing any discomfort. Then push the inside piece of the applicator in (the stick) while holding the applicator in place. After you do this the stick will be completely inside the applicator and both will be in your vagina.  After this the cream will have been inserted and you can pull the whole applicator out. Don't worry it's fairly simple after you get the hang of it; also I have never heard of the applicator getting stuck. If you still need help your local pharmacist should be able to give you a demonstration.
Good luck!

Question 4

my clitoris hurts just a little bit when i wipe. is it a yeast infection?

Exam please: You may have an infection which should be treated. A proper diagnosis can only be made with a more complete medical history and an exam. The examining physician may than order routine lab tests and check a culture from your vaginal region under a microscope. Please go to a medical clinic as soon as possible to be examined. I wish you well with your health!

Question 5

can a male be affected or hurt by having unprotected sex with a female who has a yeast infection?

my boyfriend had a yeast infection. uncircumsized, took the medication and was feeling great but when we tried "it" it hurts him, any suggestions?
