TMI Question......Any Help would be grea
| Mon, 08-07-2006 - 8:08pm |
For the past few days I have been pretty uncomofortable. I would say it started last Sunday after Kevin and I had sex. I was a little sore aftertwards but nothing out of the oridnary. Well Saturday it started itching and is sore also. I have also noticed I have a pretty good amount of mucusy discharge on my underwear when I go to the bathroom. I think I may call the gyno and see if they think I should come in. What do you think that it could be? Maybe a yeast infection? Any help would be greatly apprecitated.

Itching, soreness a heavy discharge = some sort of infection. It could be yeast (fungal) or bacterial, or possibly chlamydia....which can do damage to your ovaries if you don't get it taken care of. Only a doctor can tell you for sure. In the meantime, don't have unprotected sex, because you can give it to him. If he gets it he won't have any symptoms, but he'll give it right back to you after you're healed. It can go back and forth forever! If it turns out that you need an Rx, and you've had sex since it started, then he should get an Rx, too.
By the way, just because you noticed it after sex doesn't mean you got it from him, if it's a yeast or bacterial infection. They start on their own for various reasons. Chlamydia is an STD. But, see the doctor, and find out what it is, and get it treated. That's the important thing.
I am 99.99% sure it is not Chlamydia. I have only been with one person, and he was tested before we ever did anything. He has only been with a few people, and there quite a bit of time between when we had sex and when he was with his last partner.
I got Monistat last night because I cound't take it anymore, and I am feeling much better today. Thanks for the advice.
