A 33-year-old female asked:
Can a yeast infection cause nausea, malaise & lower abdominal discomfort on top of the vaginal itching & discomfort? there's no frequency, burning during urination, or foul smell, so i assume it's not a uti...?

Vaginal fungal infection with Candida (candidiasis) rarely causes systemic symptoms such as nausea and malaise. The typical symptoms and signs are vaginal itching and burning along with vaginal redness with cheesy discharge.
