Yeast Infection Treatment
Up to 75% of women will have a vaginal yeast infection at least once in their lifetime — and nearly half will have two or more.
It's caused by an overgrowth of natural yeast in the vagina and is very treatable.
Herexa's OB-GYNs can prescribe the right antifungal treatment today, without a waiting-room visit.
A yeast infection can cause burning, itching, and redness in your vulva and changes to your vaginal discharge.
It isn’t a sexually transmitted infection (STI).

What Is a Vaginal Yeast Infection?
Yeast called Candida naturally lives in the vagina at low levels. When something upsets that balance — like antibiotics, hormonal changes, or high blood sugar — it can overgrow and cause symptoms. A yeast infection is not an STI.
Common Symptoms of Yeast infection
- Intense vaginal and vulvar itching or burning
- Thick, white, cottage cheese-like discharge (usually odorless)
- Redness or swelling of the vulva
- Small cracks or soreness in the skin around the vagina
- Burning or pain when you pee or have sex
Note: Symptoms can look and feel similar to BV or other infections — physician review helps ensure you get the right treatment.

When to Seek In-Person Care
While Herexa Health covers most common cases, certain symptoms require a physical examination to ensure your safety and long-term health.
Symptoms that keep returning
If you have had 4 or more yeast infections in one year (recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis), you need in-person evaluation, culture confirmation, and possible long-term antifungal suppression therapy.
You're pregnant
Topical treatments are safe, but oral fluconazole should be avoided in the first trimester
Severe redness, swelling, or skin cracking
These symptoms may indicate a more serious condition and should be evaluated in person.
