Dear Anon,

I would highly suggest that you see a doctor. The sooner you see one, the sooner they can diagnose whatever is wrong with you and fix it. If you hate your doctor, find a different one that you like.

You can try the monistat, and if you do have a yeast infection it will most likely help you. The part about it saying on the label not to use it unless you've been seen by a doctor is a disclaimer, it says similar things on cough syrup, etc.... PLEASE see a doctor anyway, though.

I understand that you can't talk to anyone, but you can always write here for info, or call a nurse at a hospital. It's important that you get the right information, not matter where you get it from. Robin suggested that you talk ot your school counselor or nurse, which is a good idea if you feel comfortable with them. I know we didn't have a school nurse and my counselor reminded me of my goat when I was in high school! You can email me privately if ya like, maggiebanderson@yahoo.com

Take care,

-- Maggie
