itchy vagina with discharge Posted: 01-25-08 15:33pm
I have a itchy vagina that started
yesterday, and it haves a milky white
discharge well I do not have the discharge
today and it is not itching as much. I
purchase that vagisil home test kit for
vaginal infection and the first test said
6.5ph and the second one says 4.5ph which
is near normal and they said if it's 4.5
there is no need to consult a doctor. I
consulted my doctor and they did a vaginal
infection test and it was clear and they
also did a STD test and now I have to wait
for them results until next week. But if I
have a itchy vagina and my vagina test
came back clear that must mean that it's a
STD doesn't it.

It could mean that. What did your doctor
say about it? Did he prescribe you
something help with the itching? Did he
rule out yeast infection?

Sounds like a yeast infection! Why didn't
your gyno test for that? You need to ask
them to test for that, because according
to the store bought test, you have it.

Well they look into my vagina and said
that everything looks ok and they did that
little vagina infection test which they
could find the results there self and it
was clear I do get yeast infections
sometimes and uti infections form holding
my urine alot. But I guess that's not it
since that test came back cleared the
discharge that I am having I think that
it's normal but I would of felt better if
they said it's a yeast infection or
something minor but they said it's clear
which leaves me with the STD thought
because it haves to be something if my
vagina is itching.

It might just be irritation if it is
itchy. Have you been sweating or doing
vigerous activity or wearing tight
clothes? Until you get your results back,
you should get a vagisil cream to ease the
itchiness.
Have you been having unprotected sex to
lead you to think it may be an std?
It is possible if you have, but I would
not freak yourself out over it quite yet.
Take it easy until you get the results.
The at home screening test you bought says
you have a yeast infection, so it is quite
possible it is just that. You should
check to get a second opinion on the yeast
infection if your test results come back
clear for stds and you are still itching.

It's not really itching anymore it was jus
itching that 1 day and yes I have been
having unprotected sex with my boyfriend
of 1 year. I always go to the doctors to
get blood tests and std tests all the time
but I just read on that vagsil instruction
sheet that you are not suppose to test
your self until 72hrs after sex and I had
test myself like a hour after I had sex.

TEST CAME BACK. AND I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION. Posted: 01-30-08 12:27pm
Ok my test came back negative and I have
another question can you catch a disease
from wiping urine off a toilet seat when
you go to use it because when I am over
friends house he haves alot of brothers
and you know how boys are we they urinate
but anyways when I go to use it I always
have to wipe it up. So could you catch
anything from wiping a toilet seat.

Unlikely. You could get something if you
DON'T wipe the seat, but if you wipe with
a clean piece of toilet paper and avoid
touching the urine you shouldn't catch
anything. And always wash your hands lol.

You are suggesting a douche, and that is a
very bad idea. Douching is very unhealthy
for the vagina. It can shove harmful
bacteria deep inside, and it upsets the
natural balance of good bacteria, yeast,
etc. Women who douche get way more vaginal
infections than those who don't.
