A member asked:
Will a yeast infection go away without treatment? if so how long? and how do you stop just the symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yeast symptoms/cure: Vaginal yeast infections are diagnosed by the MD based upon the symptoms of itching and a thick white discharge and confirmed by microscopic exam of a vaginal sample. Relieving the external vulvar "symptoms" with a topical agent does not produce a "cure" of the infection without an vaginal or oral Rx to do so. See a GYN MD for evaluation if you suspect that this is the case.
