I have a very TMI Vag question

LaciLeighLaciLeigh member
in Pregnant after a Loss

I am wondering if anyone has experienced this, because I have never had a yeast infection (or at least never known) so I wondering if this is what it is?

 

I noticed when I wiped this morning it hurt the outside of my vaginal area, its also irritated looking. It does not hurt when I pee, nor do I have any additionally abnormal discharge (other than what I have during pregnancy) nor any odors.

 

Now I am wondering if this could be a yeast infection or if maybe I just irritated it? I just got back from a scenic driving vacation that invovled a lot of sitting and use of public toilets (ugh)? I feel it hurt a little when I do a kegal (the outside skin of my vagina only)

 

Since its already 9pm on Friday my drs office is not open again until Monday for me to call and ask.

    Every time I've had a yeast infection I don't have any discharge, I'm just very red and irritated and uncomfortable (and occasionally itchy). Is there an on-call doctor you could ask?

    hmm I don't know, I've had one yeast infection in my life (not to jinx myself) but that doesn't sound like it.  Maybe call your dr...sorry :(

    Hmm, I think that the outside area is usually irritated, and that there is some itching involved.  I've only had one or two that I know of.  I don't remember a lot of extra discharge involved. 

    They do make an at-home test kit (Vagisil), but I'm not sure how accurate it is.  It's based on vaginal pH.

    I've had them before and they always involve a lot of itching! I would call your doc either way because they may treat them more seriously when you're pregnant.

    You may not have an internal yeast infection, but some yeast on the outside which will be soothed by vagisil.  I don't know if it is safe during pregnancy so you should probably still call the doc.

    1st off, I am impressed you can still see your vag! I havent seen mine unassisted in a while. I agree with everyone else- red itchy is it. Get it checked. good luck.
