A lot of women think they have a yeast infection when they actually have a bacterial infection called Bacterial Vaginosis. Even women who have never had sex can get this infection.
This can cause some women to have the symptoms you are experiencing.I have had this infection at times in my life and sometimes you don't have any symptoms at all.
It usually is best to have a gyno diagnose it because it does need a prescription to clear it up.
Metro-Gel is usually what they prescribe. It is an antibiotic gel that you insert for 5 days.
Well, do you know your boyfriend's sexual history?
I doubt that you have an STD - but to be on the safe side, check with your gynecologist if the symptoms get worse or you start having a discharge that has an odor.
