I don't know if I have a yeast infection or not??
Question: I don't have any discharge, my pantyliner is clean, but it smells.
If I do have an infection, any solutions besides seeing a doctor?
Answers: A yeast infection will itch. It might not have discharge, but it will be red and flamey and itchy like the bastard fungus it is. If you do not itch, it is not a yeast infection.
If you don't KNOW that it's a yeast infection, DON'T TREAT IT as one. This just raises your tolerance to the drugs so when you do have a yeast infection it will probably not work as well. If you think it is a yeast infection but don't know, have a doctor look at it first. This will help you familiarize yourself with how your body reacts to yeast imbalances - not everyone reacts the same way.
What I would do is wait a little while. Your smell (and taste, but that's another matter) changes throughout the month due to a combination of hormones, food intake, hydration, sex, etc. You might find that within a week your smell changes again. This is particularly true if you're stressed or sexually active (or both).
With the exception of a yeast infection (which does not always have a discharge, despite popular myth!!!), most of the time infections involve a discharge. Watch out for discharge, but other than that I wouldn't worry too much unless it lasts a long time, then just make an appointment with your doctor. Meanwhile, eat live-active-culture yogurt and think about stocking up on some acidophilus vitamins (good as a preventative measure against yeast infections - no need to take all the time, but it's great for when you're prescribed antibiotics).
call a doctor
No see a doctor asap a bad smell can mean infection
sounds like you should just wash a little down there.
if it's not burning or itching, it doesn't sound like a yeast infection.
just use a little water & soap and it should clear away.
Use a douche. If it doesn't itch or burn it's probably not a yeast infection. Also try to use feminine wash every time you shower.
At the drugstore there is an over the counter test that you can take that will tell you if it is bacterial and if it is not, it is usually yeast related. Buy the test, use it and if it comes out negative, get some Monistat.
P.S. It might be a little expensive
Wash more often. Also it might be a good idea to wash those panties more often.
How does it smell? Bad? Does it smell like something other than your natural odor?
Usually discharge is indicative of a yeast infection. You can go to the pharmacy and purchase a yeast infection at-home treatment kit. It's a simple way to treat yourself without spending the time and money at a doc's office. Also, try eating yogurt once or twice a day.
Keep an eye on yourself during and after the treatment. If you notice anything out of the ordinary, call your doc or local clinic.
Good luck!
Get the monistat 1 day. You insert a sort of egg looking thing up there and it opens and cures the infection. Use it at night because it leaks out of your body over time and wear a pad.
