Period Missed After Yeast Infection, No Other Symptoms. Can It Be STD?
I have missed my period for the last few months since I started a yeast infection, I'm scared it might be related to std. I am not sexually active now, I was then also in too much stress then. I don't any physical symptoms related to std except my yeast infections, missed period, and suspicion bc my partner used to be very active sexually even if when not together and I'm just paranoid about it. I only had two partners all my life

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
The chances of STD are there with unprotected sex and multiple sex partner.
Your period may be delayed because of yeast infection or because of STD also.
You and your partner should consult a doctor and treat accordingly.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa

Hello,
Thanks for posting on HCM,
The most common cause of missed period is pregnancy (which has to be ruled out first with a pregnancy test before other causes can be investigated) and other causes maybe PID, stress, hormonal dysfunction etc. Yeast infection will hardly cause alteration in periods except if severe. If you are certain pregnancy is not the cause, then it will be wise that you give it some few weeks again, if it does not return then see a gynobs.
Hope this helps
