vaginapagina | to treat or not to treat? yeasties (Reply)

Okay ladies (and some men are floating around in here, I presume):

I've had a persistent YI for about a month; it went away for a few days when I had my period but now it's back again. I went to the doctor today and got some prescription-strength medication today. But when I am checking around down there tonight, my symptoms seem to have gone down. My question is this:

If my yeast looks like it's going down, would it hurt or speed its recovery to use the medication?

and I have another, equally important and probably stupid question haha.

Can performing oral sex on someone with a yeast infection give you an oral yeast infection?

I'm really ready to be rid of this thing, as my boyfriend who I haven't seen in THREE MONTHS is coming to visit on Sunday. I'm just worried that if it's going down by itself, would it throw off the magic PH balance to use medication??? This might be a dumb as hell question and that's fine, but I'd really love some feedback.

Do you ladies have any experiences of your medication worsening your condition?

Thanks for all the help in advance! Love this comm!
