I don't know if I have overactive bladder or not. I go to the bathroom once in the morning, 2-3 times at school, and maybe 3 times after school. Sometimes I get a little bit of pee in my underwear, or I leak when I can't use the bathroom right away. At first I just thought it was discharge (I've had my period for almost three years) but I get it a lot now. I don't know what's wrong with me... any answers please? Oh yeah, please don't say to ask my doctor (because I will), just give me an opinion on what you think.
I rate five for decent answers!

RockStoleMySoul answered Saturday October 8 2005, 1:56 pm: Um, well, this might sound kind of gross, but I think that you might have a yeast infection. I know, gross right? But I think that's the answer. You should ask your doctor about medicine and it will clear up right away.
A yeast infection is an excessive growth of fungus that naturally occurs in the vagina or mouth. When yeast infections occur in the mouth, they are also called oral thrush. Although small amounts of fungus normally grow on the body, pregnancy, hormonal changes, antibiotics, and a weakened immune system can increase the risk of getting an oral or vaginal yeast infection Other factors that can play a role include diabetes and medications such as corticosteroids and estrogen-containing birth control pills. Wearing tight or damp clothing and douching can make vaginal yeast infections more likely.
Symptoms of oral thrush include painful white patches on the tongue or inside the mouth or throat.
Symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection include a odorless, thick, white, cottage cheese-like vaginal discharge; itching; redness; pain during sex; and pain during urination. While vaginal yeast infections can be self-treated, it’s important that you contact your physician the first time you have these symptoms to verify that a yeast infection is indeed the problem. It’s also important to contact your physician any time you have these symptoms along with stomach pain, fever, or a foul-smelling vaginal discharge, since this may mean you have a bacterial infection.
If you have seen a doctor about a vaginal yeast infection in the past and are familiar with your own symptoms, you may want to try an over-the-counter yeast treatment. If over-the counter products don’t work, prescription medications are available both for vaginal infections and oral infections. [ RockStoleMySoul's advice column | Ask RockStoleMySoul A Question ]
