    can you wipe it off?

      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.

    it's good that you got medication. Please update us when you got your swab results

      it tested positive for yeast infection.

      i am sure it is from the medication.

      she had never seen it like this before.. but i just got the call.

      i tested positive for HSV-2

      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.
