Can taking my vitamins give me a yeast infetion i have thick discharge ?

NO: I know of no instance where vitamins have been the culprit for a vaginal infection. If you have this kind of dischare, i would recommend you see your pcp/gyn and get a check for the cause and the proper treatment.

No: Taking vitamins doesn't cause yeast infections. Yeast infections can be caused by antibiotics, immune problems, diabetes, and many other causes. But not by vitamins.
