Need advice on what is the the worst that will happen if you leave what you think is a yeast infection ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Your own discomfort: The worst thing that can happen to you if you ignore what you think is a yeast infection is the itching and redness can bother you. Also you might think you have a yeast infection but really have something else, so if it doesn't go away on its own it is wise to get checked. If you don't want to take a medication try stopping all sugar, fruit, carbs, alcohol. Try yeast arrest - has boric acid.
