Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have non stop vaginal itching for 2 days and just tested for over the counter yeast infection and it came negative. I also tested UTI over the counter and looks bit positive but not sure. I do have white discharge in my vaginal, so could it be yeast infection instead of UTI? Just to stop itchness, I treated myself with Yeast infection supposotory. I also have Nitrofurantoin Mono/Mac 100MG, should I go ahead and take it in case it s UTI?
From your symptoms it appears that you have reproductive tract infection rather than UTI. These conditions can be due to yeast or some bacteria. Generally a kit containg azithromycin, secnidazole and fluconazole is given. please consult your gynaecologist before taking any such medicine
