Hi! I seem to get yeast infections all the time! Why is this happening?
User icon
Katherine
Yeast infections happen when a normally occurring fungus overgrows, and there are a lot of reasons why this can happen! Do you happen to use scented soaps or products around your vulva or in your vagina? They can disrupt your natural pH balance, which can lead to yeast.

What form of the "morning-after" pill is right for me?

Emergency contraception can be used to prevent a pregnancy after having unprotected sex. It is often referred to as the morning-after pill, though this term is misleading as you can take the medication up to 3-5 days after unprotected sex, depending on the specific treatment you take. It is not the abortion pill, which ends an existing pregnancy. Learn more about the two types of emergency contraception pills Hey Jane offers below.

What is a yeast infection?

Yeast infections are a type of fungal infection that can affect the vagina and vulva. They're caused by an overgrowth of a type of fungus called Candida, which is normally present in the body in small amounts. 

If you think you might have a yeast infection, don't worry—they're actually pretty common, and they're usually easy to treat. Have chronic yeast infections? Our providers understand how frustrating that might be and can help with those too!

Yeast infection symptoms can vary from patient to patient, but typically include:

  • Discomfort and itchiness around the vaginal opening
  • Thick, white, cottage cheese-like vaginal discharge
  • Painful urination
  • Painful vaginal sex

How can I get rid of a yeast infection fast?

Yeast infections are best treated with a prescribed oral antifungal tablet, usually called fluconazole, or an over the counter, short-term course of vaginal cream or suppositories, which are small cone-shaped medications that are inserted directly into the vagina. With oral treatment, you will generally notice an improvement in 24 hours and see total relief in 3 to 7 days.

The most commonly prescribed medications for yeast infections are:

  • Fluconazole (Diflucan), an antifungal pill taken orally
  • Butoconazole (Gynazole), an antifungal cream applied to the infected area

After you fill out our intake form on your phone or computer, your Hey Jane provider will evaluate the whole picture. They’ll connect the dots between different factors to diagnose your yeast infection and provide a range of treatment options that address both your lifestyle and medical needs. This includes discussing your history of prior infections, your current symptoms, and what has or hasn’t worked for you in the past.

Popular FAQs

How will my Hey Jane provider know what infection I have?

We’ll ask you questions to evaluate the most likely cause of your symptoms. Based on your answers and your medical history, our team of experienced providers work together to get you feeling better! We are always just a message away.

Can Hey Jane help me get tested for STIs and other infections?

At this time, we do not offer testing for STIs. If you think you have been exposed, or need testing, we can help direct you where to go.

How much does Hey Jane's infection consultation cost?

We accept select insurance plans and offer cash-pay patients an income-based sliding scale pricing for our vaginal infection consultations. You may also be able to pay for your consultation with your HSA or FSA if you’d like.

Your payment covers your provider’s time and unlimited messaging with the Hey Jane team for the duration of your treatment. We will send your prescription to your local pharmacy of choice for fast, easy pickup. In some cases, we can send your medication directly to you.

You will pay the pharmacy directly for the cost of medication. Costs can vary depending on what specific treatment is prescribed and whether or not you use insurance. In many cases, medication can be as low as $0 with insurance. If you don’t have insurance or are worried about costs, let your provider know so that they can advise on affordable options.

Does Hey Jane ship my yeast infection treatment directly to me?

At this time, Hey Jane only offers delivery for yeast infection treatment to patients not using insurance.

If using insurance, your provider will send your prescription to your preferred local pharmacy to be filled ASAP. Some pharmacies have their own delivery services, so we recommend giving yours a call if you’re curious!

What causes yeast infections?

When too much yeast grows on your skin or other areas, it can cause an infection, also called candidiasis. Anyone can get a yeast infection, and it’s more likely to happen if you:

  • Have had a yeast infection before
  • Are sexually active
  • Use spermicides or diaphragms
How common are yeast infections?

Super common! In fact yeast infections are one of the most common causes of vaginal/vulvar itching and discharge.

Are there natural remedies for yeast infections?

Yes, there are. Some people find that boric acid suppositories can help balance the pH of their vaginas, and make it harder for yeast to grow. Some studies also suggest that probiotics can help with yeast, while others say not so much. Probiotics do not hurt though!

Sometimes your body will even treat yeast on its own, but the fastest way to get rid of a yeast infection is with antifungals medication.

What's the difference between BV and a yeast infection?

BV is caused by an imbalance of naturally occurring bacteria while yeast infections are caused by an overgrowth of yeast in the vagina. These two infections often get confused for one another, and can even occur at the same time.

Comparison of yeast infection and BV symptoms

Symptom Yeast infection Bacterial vaginosis (BV)
Discomfort and itchiness around the vaginal opening
Thick, white, cottage cheese-like vaginal discharge
Thin, white, or gray vaginal discharge
Unusual vaginal odor
Painful urination
Painful vaginal sex
What causes recurring yeast infections multiple times a year?

Recurring yeast infections can be tricky! Some medications and frequent intercourse can increase the risk for developing a yeast infection, but it can also be related to genetics. ‍

To prevent future yeast infections, here are some tips:

  • Wear loose, cotton underwear that is breathable.
  • Try taking boric acid suppositories to help maintain a healthy pH balance in and around your vagina which can make it harder for yeast to grow. We recommend Love Wellness or Boric Life
  • Refrain from using scented products in or on your genitals.
  • Remove and replace clothing that gets wet with dry if possible—yeast loves warm and damp!
Does hormonal birth control cause yeast infections?

While using birth control doesn’t necessarily cause yeast infections, it can increase your risk of developing one.

If you’re someone who gets yeast infections frequently, using IUDs, diaphragms, sponges, and birth control that contains estrogen can increase your chances of developing a yeast infection. If you experience yeast infections often and are looking to find the right birth control for you, we’d be happy to talk more about your options!
