Yeast Infection
I think I have a yeast infection, but i also have a fever and have been vominting. I gave oral sex about 3 months ago. Is it possible at all to get a vaginal STD by giving oral sex.
Thank-you I'm very worried.

No, you can't get a genital STD by performing oral sex.
If you're sure you have a yeast infection, then it's probably unlreated to your fever and vomiting. But more than half the time a woman thinks she has yeast, it's something else, sometimes gonorrhea or chlamydia. If you have vaginal discharge plus fever and vomiting, I'm concerned about pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), especially if you're also having abdominal pain and don't have diarrhea. But any intra-abdominal infection can cause the same symptoms. Delaying diagnosis and treatment of PID or another internal infection is dangerous. You should see a health care provider TODAY.

thank-you.
Is it possible to get PID by giving oral sex. I never had sex and didnt think it was possible to get PID by just oral sex. Or if i got Gonerahha by giving oral sex, can that turn into PID?

No infection of any kind gets from the mouth or throat into the genital tract. If you haven't had vaginal intercourse, you're not at risk for gonorrhea, PID, or any other STD that would cause abdominal pain. (If your sexual activity has included genital-genital contact without penetration, there is a slight chance, just as pregnancy sometimes can occur without penetration.) But no matter what the cause, the symptoms you describe indicate that you need to see a health care provider. Don't delay.
