TMI but it's so uncomfortable!

So, a few weeks back, I had noticed that my cooter was VERY dry, itchy and I had this gross discharge. When I went to my doctors appointment, he confirmed it was a yeast infection. He have me some type of cream antibiotic to insert downstairs and it worked but now I have the dry and itchiness again but no discharge. Could it be another yeast infection or could it be normal?

Soaps can cause irritation.  I had to switch to dove inscented sensitive soap. If u notice the dryness after a bath,  that could be a factor.

Antifungal creams given for yeast infections can dry you out. The discharge is usually a big factor is diagnosing a yeast infection. I'd say give it a couple days and if you see no improvement call your Dr.

It could be, yeast infections are very common with pregnancy and once you get one, its very easy for it to come back. Just make sure you arent soaking in the tub alot and wearing cotton undies and pants that breathe. That will help.
