How to Identify Yeast Infection Indicators

By Raymond Haymon


Most women will experience a vaginal yeast infection at some point in their lives. Recognizing the symptoms is the first step to getting treatment. Women recognize the itching and burning, that accompanies a vaginal infection likely caused by yeast.

Even however yeast infections are a very ordinary form of vaginal infection, how can you in actual fact be sure, you're experiencing yeast symptoms or a different type of vaginal infection.

Vaginal Yeast Infection Symptoms are not noticeable by women if the infection is slight. Typical yeast infection symptoms are, itching and puffiness in the vaginal area and in the region of the vulva, burning, a white/gray vaginal discharge, burning during urination, pain with sexual intercourse and a fishy odor.

Since yeast infection treatment options have become available over the counter, many women go to the closest drugstore and pay money for an anti-fungal cream.

Just as some bacteria are becoming resistant to certain antibiotics, yeast that normally lives in the vagina can become resistant to anti-fungal medications.

American Academy of Family Physicians recommends, for a initial episode of yeast infection women should see a physician to get a correct diagnosis. For a second episode it's sensible to ask her doctor about self-treatment.

What are Doctors Looking For? You'll be asked about your symptoms and general health. A gynecological exam will be done. Your doctor will test for redness, swelling, discharge, and odor.

Doctors agree, vaginal yeast and bacterial infections, are common and difficult to diagnose. Both cause discharge and itching, plus or minus an odor. To determine the type, a sample must be taken and viewed microscopically as soon as possible.

Once the origin of your infection is accurately determined, you'll be able to established proper symptoms and be on your way to receiving the right treatment and relief.
