To all you wonderful smart ladies out there...![]()
I'm sorry to be so long winded and graphic but I think I might have a yeast infection and I was suppose to go to a club tonight to try to get a job. Now I'm all depressed because if I do have a YI then it's really not a good idea to go right?. I'm not sure I do though.
Here's the situation I'm in as I know it... Probably about 4-5 days ago me and my boyfriend had sex that night and then again the next morning using a latex lubricated condom ("Trojan Magnum XL" to be specific because the damn things don't say if they have spermicide or not or what they use for a lubricant!) and also "H2O" personal lubricant that contains glycerine which I've heard can trigger YI's.
We don't have sex like, all the time, maybe twice a week or so, but we've been together for awhile. We were particularly rough the first night and included oral favors so I was sore the next morning but we did it again anyway. The next day after the soreness and irritation went away I noticed my clitoris was very sensetive, almost inflamed, and kind of itchy. I always wash in the tub squatting under the water like a frog after sex and pee too to prevent UTI's so my first thought was okay I didn't wash very well.
I've been keeping extra clean the past two and a half days. I even bought feminine wipes (Summer's Eve because they were flushable and came in a small package) to use instead of the Charmin toilet paper that they have at work because that stuff leaves loads of lint on my kitty and drives me nuts.
The irritation has gone down immensly but there is still a hint of it if I go say half a day without cleaning my clit really well. I also noticed the past two days when I've been at the gym I have gotten a lot of vaginal discharge that is thick and white, I'd say about 1/4 of a teaspoon worth but that's the only time I really have had a discharge problem that I've noticed. When I got out of the tub today I was using a mirror to look at my kitty to make sure I'd shaved everything and when I open my kitty I can see some white discharge that concerns me. Other then my clit there is no itching or discomfort.
I'm flat broke...car has no gas in it and the electric bill is due today. Buying calcium pills which were $8.99 put me over my budget... We're going to make the bills but I have no money at the moment to go see a Gyno. I already have an appointment for June 14th for a birth control perscription renewal because this is the first month in 12 that I have been off the pill.
My mom said to douche with a vinegar and water mixture as she said that in the early stages this restores the PH or whatever and I should be fine. I've read the YI thread and the douching thread and this sounds like a bad idea to me but given my finances or lack therof what should I do? And this DOES mean that I have to wait to go and get a job right? Or should I still try?
