If : If you feel like you have a vaginal yeast infection (thick white cottage cheese like discharge, itching and burning) then you can try an over the counter vaginal anti-fungal cream like Monistat or Clotrimazole vaginal cream. If this does not work then you may be dealing with a different type of infection and need to see your doctor right away for a complete exam and testing. Good luck.

Yeast infections: If it’s your 1st possible yeast infection or you aren’t sure if it’s yeast – see your dr. Tx options: vaginal cream, ointment or suppository for sev. days (7 to 14 days sometimes). OTC meds include monistat (miconzole), Vagistat-1 (tioconazole), Femstat (buoconazole), Gyne-Lotrimin or Mycelex( clotrimazole). If OTC meds don’t work see your Dr. S/he may order Diflucan (oral antifungal)
