Thread: Can You "Catch" A Yeast Infection From Something? (Read Post...)

CHANDLERS WISH
But would such an reaction cause alot of vaginal discharge... that is really one of my main symptoms I'm noticing (aside from the general discomfort). I'm definately not going dirty; I can take a shower and a couple hours later, it will reappear (I can feel it, as gross as that may sound ). That's not normal for me.

Back to the original question; the only thing it could have possibly given me is an allergy, not revenge of my old yeast infection so to speak (the bacteria that causes yeast infection can't live outside the body, more specifically)? I'm going to see about getting to a doctor very soon (because this is seriously bothering me), or may just go out and buy some yeast infection treatment anyway (know of any cheap products that work?)... that wouldn't hurt if a yeast infection isn't the issue right? Home tests for that sort of thing are more costly than I'd want to deal with!

Hopefully you don't have a yeast infection and passed it on to your boyfriend because if he has *Removed outbound link* and doesn't know it he could be reinfecting you so just check it out.
