Yeast infection: Sounds like a typical yeast infection which is caused by an imbalance of vaginal yeast and beneficial bacteria. One common cause is the recent use of antibiotics. Your doctor can check by doing a vaginal smear. There are vaginal cream treatments lasting 1-7 days (recommend 7). Do not use fluconozole treatment. It has been associated with birth defects.
