i was diagnosed with HSV-2, almost two weeks ago. i finished my 10 day antivirals one week ago. everything was healed and no pain or itching, now i

this looks like thrush. its common to get it after antiviral medication.

no it can't wipe off, i went to the doctor today and she is SURE its a yeast infection.
she swabbed it to make sure, and put me on the medication for it.

i hope you feel better soon! this looks so uncomfortable! try wearing 100% cotton underwear, ans maybe none at all at night to help. did your dr prescibe you some cream?
i would maybe start a daily womens probiotic to promote healthy bacteria.

it honestly wasn't the worst yeast infection i have had. it looks so uncomfortable, but my herpes outbreak was the WORST. i used over the counter last night, and it helped so much. she prescribed me yeast infection medication to take orally. so i will start that today.
