Will a yeast infection go away untreated?
Is it possible if I just leave it alone and stop having sex that a yeast infection will go away completely untreated or do you have to go to the doctor and get something to take care of it?

Maybe give some free advice about: Illnesses?
there may be some types of yeast infections that your body might be able to get rid of, but there are some that wont go away, they either stay dormant or active but will not clearly leave your body, some yeast infections can be transmitted to diffrent parts of the body or to others. Over the counter medications are not anways going to work most of them are there to reduce but wont work to cure. I strongly recommend to seek medical professional advice. Dont forget that at least 1 a year see your gynocologist for a pap smear and always do self breast exams at least once a month.
i hope this helps

It will eventually go away, but it will be a slow and uncomfortable process. If you don't want to see your doctor, you can get over-the-counter treatments, in the form of pills, creams or a pessary (which is inserted into the vagina like a tampon). I suggest you go and speak to your pharmacist.
