I was on antibiotics about 3 weeks ago and during that time I noticed my vagina had started to become itchy. I didn't think much of it at first, but recently it's become a bit worse. It itches at times on both the outside and inside. There is a white discharge, but not an overwheming amount. I have no pain during sex and there is no smell, though last weekend my boyfriend noticed my vagina looked a litte irritated. I bought a 3 day course of miconazole, but I'm on the second day and it doesn't seem to be helping. What could this be??? Thanks for your help :eek:

Sadly antibiotics can cause yeast infections. I took some for my swollen lymph nodes and had a slight yeast infection. Not enough to run to the doctor so I was eating yogurt like crazy and took large anounts of acidophilus. Gone now.
Though I was given a month of antibiotics cause my nodes did not go down so I might get another.
It sounds like a yeast infection. If it does not get better you may try calling your doctor and see if he/she will call in a script for you.
