Bit embarrassing..

Question:

It burns a little bit when I pee..I am due on really soon (like this weekend) and have slightly yellow discharge.(I always get discharge when I'm due on) Do you think its either thrush or cystitis?? Hardly been drinking any water so if it is cystitis.haven't been helping it! Haven't 'douched' for a week or so as thought this might've started it off..cant be an STD as haven't had sex recently and have been in a serious stable relationship for two years (we are Christians although I have had sex before.)

Pls help!

Answers:
Hi - Sounds like a touch of bladder infection, so off to the docs. Also, you must drink more water! But you knew that didnt you? ;O) Good luck and hope youre more comfortable soon. B

See your doc immediately.

Simple water problem..start drinking a lot of water. Sounds like a touch of cystitis - drink plenty of cranberry juice - that should help. And I hate to say it, but by douching, you're actually destroying the natural flora inside your vagina, which might leave you open to infection. It's best to leave your insides alone and just make sure the outside is spotless. If you're concerned, go and see your GP.

u have to drink more water. plz don't harm the baby, it takes a couple glasses of water 6-7 times a day only

It sounds very much like you have an infection. Firstly, go and drink lots of water. Then see your GP, they will help you out.

Goodluck.

Drink water only la..
If still can't cure then go n c dr.

I agree with Roxy--douching is bad for you. The vagina naturally cleans itself, and all you're doing is upsetting the balance of bacteria, which in itself can leave you open to infections.

See your doctor.

It's probably cystitis aggrovated by thrush hon. Take care of it and you will feel better. first off go to your doctor or if your to embarrassed try to drink a lot of cranberry juice it can help, also if it itches it probably is thrush which you can get cream and tablets for over the counter
Good Luck

It sounds a lot like thrush. Vaginal thrush is NOT a sexually transmitted disease - it is a condition which results from an imbalance of bacteria and yeasts which naturally live in the vagina.

This imbalance can allow one type of yeast, Candida albicans, to breed faster than usual and this can cause thrush.

The imbalance which can lead to thrush can be caused by many different things - some entirely natural like the hormonal changes experienced during menstruation, in pregnancy or at the menopause.

Being a thrush sufferer does not mean you are 'dirty' - in fact being over zealous with vaginal douches is one of the things which can help upset the natural balance in the vagina and start an attack of thrush.

If this is your first bout of thrush, you should visit your doctor so that he/she can confirm that this is the problem and not a different infection.

In some cases your doctor may take some samples from the vagina to check for infections, including thrush.

acually after a recnt study i heard.. douching is a bad thing for you, when you do that it acually takes any infection and pushes it back up your system which can cause more problems. another thing i've learned is get toilet paper that doesn't have perfume in it. the perfumes in them can cause infections also. try these things and if you don't see a improvment in about 2 weeks, consult your obgyn. good luck :)

Sounds like cystitis, I'd recommend drinking LOTS of water, some cranberry juice as well might help, and if it doesn't help in a couple of days you can buy things over the counter in the pharmacy to help, you don't need to go to the doctor.
