Thanks a lot, I'll look more into that. She has never had a yeast infection before, so she doesn't really know the symptoms. I obviously haven't either, so i'm pretty clueless^.<

Discharge question
-
Would her regular doctor be fine, like the one she would go to for a cold, or a gynocologist that would specialize in it?
-
Yeah if she's never had one before than I would definately say just see a doctor. That way she's informed of what exactly it is in case it happens again. And i'm not totally sure, but if she doesn't have a gyno I bet a regular doctor could treat something as simple as a yeast infection. Though if she already does see a gyno then thats who she should probably go to.

Thanks

Yeah, she's kind of afraid to go to a doctor, but I've been reading on it and if it is some type of yeast or bacterial infection, I wouldn't want it to get more serious if not treated. But I think she just might try to keep it really clean for a week or two and see what happens first, so I don't know..>.<What do you think?
-
She needs to see a doctor. It's already been two weeks and "keeping it really clean" is not going to fix the problem.

No kidding. Bacterial infections can look like yeast infections, and doctors run cultures to make sure they're treating the right problem. There are many causes for abnormal vaginal discharge, and some can cause complications like infertility if they aren't treated.Your girlfriend should have a gyn anyway since she's sexually active to get her annual pap smear to check for cervical cancer. (which is very treatable if caught early)

I don't have a girlfriend with discharge issues . Make sure you reply to the correct person or indicate it in the post if its to multiple people. It reduces confusion around here.

Definitely this is a yeast infection.You should try home remedies for this.If u will get good result at day by day so keep it up else take a advice of specialist.
