I've never had one, and am not looking forward to the possibility of having one in the future.

I used to get them all the time from my antibiotic treatments for my blood disease. Yogurt and crandberry juice will save your life. Stay away from sugar tho yeast loves it. My dr. Perscribed a 1 step pill that usually worked.

Yeast Infections are the worst!!! Of course, my first experience was really bad. I had no idea that I actually had one (this was when I was younger of course) and no idea what to look for. went about a week with it before I went to the doctors. By then of course, it was REALLY bad. Ugh. Why is it the women get all the "good stuff" ...Giving birth, bleed a week out of every month, menapause, YEAST INFECTIONS lol. Gotta love it.

Yuck. I've had several. Too much sugar and simple carbs, caffeine...all my favourites.

I drink unsweetened cranberry juice (absolutely no sugar and a must with a UTI) and...believe it or not, I will insert a clove of peeled garlic when I first feel one coming on. Yes, I probably smell but I hate using those expensive OTC drugs and the garlic usually works, especially if I catch it early enough. I also drink lots of water.

I don't take antibiotics ever.

YIs are horrific. I got my first one in college and had no idea what was wrong with me. I hadn't been with a partner in months so I knew it wasn't an STD. Thank goodness for the internet, I figured out some symptoms and went to the store to pick up some Monistat and pain yogurt. I tried the yogurt first. Didn't work so well. Monistat burned like the hell of a 1,000 angry suns but it worked. Next time I may give the yogurt another shot or try garlic and taking pro-biotics.

Anti-biotics trigger them for me. I have a bad immune system so even a Z-pack will usually give me a mild YI. Those are easy to deal with but when you're itching like mad you want to dig your crotch out with a butter knife...ugh.

I'd never had any vaginal health problems until last year when I got a UTI. We didn't catch it until it was in my kidneys and I was peeing blood. Scared the hell out of me. But that's the only health issue I've had of that sort.

I took antibiotics for a long stretch and I was prone to them for YEARS afterwards. Luckily things seem to have settled down for the moment. They're awful.

I've had one bad one and a couple very minor ones that barely bothered me at all. I just got my first UTI this year and it was terrible. In and out of the hospital for 6 months kind of terrible.

I've had probably 3 or 4 in my lifetime so far but they're not usually too bad. Monistat usually takes care of them right away so I'm lucky there.
