Fungus anomg us: Yeast infections also known as monilia, candida, and fungus, are treated with Clotrimazole creams vaginally. However, resistant organisms are not always "cured" and may require an additional agent.

Its possible: But other infections mimic a yeast infection, so the best advice is to see a provider for an accurate diagnosis.
