Question by Ellen: What STDS have the very same symptoms as yeast infection?
Dr. stated I had yeast infection and took a swab test, three days later she calls and says that she wants me to go in and speak about the outcomes of the swab test. Which can’t be great. Just questioning if there are any STDS that have the identical symptoms. Oh and I have only ever been with my husband so is it feasible that I might have had some thing from birth and am just finding the symptoms now?
Very best answer:

I was about to ask the same question. My husband is the only person I have ever had sex with so Im not sure whats wrong
i know with my last case of chlamydia .. it was identical to a yeast/UTI
also, bacterial vaginosis!.
it is possible that you have HPV virus!! that is why your doctor want to talk about results! but dont worry!
There are approximately 100 different strains of the HPV virus, 30 of which are sexually transmitted. Some of the remaining 70 or so HPV strains are responsible for common, ordinary skin warts, like those found on the hands, plantar warts (those found on the bottom of feet), juvenile warts and other types of warts. More than 100 types of HPV are known to exist. Low risk types (HPV 1, 2, and 3) cause warts on the hands, feet, and other parts of the body. Types (6 and 11) can cause warts on the genitals or anus (genital warts), and other types (HPV 16 and 18) can cause cancer of the cervix, external genitalia, and anus. HPV virus is most common viruses out there! It affects as much as 80% of the population. People can be infected with HPV and never show any symptoms.
and if you really want to get rid of yeast infection then you must follow these tips:
1) Eat yogurt!!!! It contains helpful bacteria (live cultures, including acidophilus and bifidus) that destroy yeast. It also works when applied topically. Insert some into the vagina using a finger or plastic tampon applicator. Use only plain yogurt with active cultures.
2) Douche with a solution of 1 to 3 tbsp. vinegar in a quart of water. Repeat once a day while having symptoms, but no longer than a week.
3) Decrease or eliminate sugar and sugary foods. Sugar promotes yeast growth.
4) Use a garlic clove as a suppository. Garlic contains a natural anti-fungal agent. Peel a fresh clove, wrap it in gauze and insert it into the vagina.
5) Try gentian violet. It’s a traditional remedy for yeast and other infections, and can be found in pharmacies. Swab the area with it once or twice a day. Make sure to use a thick pad – it stains everything.
6) Use an herbal douche. Combine equal amounts of sage, raspberry and comfrey with 1/4 part goldenseal. This can be combined with cider vinegar.
7) You must use herbal treatment. In that case Yeastrol is really good (probably the best) product that gets rid of yeast infection comparatively fast and makes you feel more confident knowing that it wont reappear again!
And of course it is better if you use full course (5 months – if I remember correctly). For me it worked very fast + I dont get yeast infections anymore…
I do not know if any pharmacies carry Yeastrol but I do know that you should purchase it directly from the manufacturer and read more about the product here http://www.mybeautynhealth.com/product/overview/Yeastrol/
good luck!
