Hello, Thnx to contact us. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that that yeast infection wont cause pink discharge. In fact any fungal infection wont cause pink discharge it may be something else. It may be bleeding that gives you pinkish tinge. such things may happens in severe Urinary tract infection. If you suspect fungal infection I advice you should go for Gram's staining, culture and sensitivity from the discharge. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Thanx. Dr. Arun Tank
