Do I have a yeast infection?!
Question: I've never had a yeast infection before, so I have no real reference helping me out. Over the last day or two I've been a tiny bit itchy down there, nothing huge, no pain, just a little itchy from time to time. There's a little bit of discharge (no more than usual, but it looks a little different, not in color, but consistency), but I read that yeast is supposed to smell, and I haven't noticed anything like that.
Anyway, I'm going to the doctor tomorrow because I have strep throat, so I'll probably end up asking, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask here too.... Thanks!

highly possible. if it burns when you use the bathroom i would say yeast infection or even a bladder infection. do you have a fever? you may if you have strep. so i am glad you are going to see a doctor tomorrow!!!! that is the best thing you can do. I hope both ends are not ill at the same time. Cranberry juice is awesome for female problems, and has vitaman c for colds. good luck with the doctor.

It could be the start of a yeast infection. They definitely get noticeably itchy, though.
It doesn't sound like a yeast infection but I would talk to my doctor about it. Here are a couple of pages that may be able to help you: http://www.medicinenet.com/yeast_vaginit... and http://www.webMD.com/. Hope these help.
