Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 68 yrs. old and haven t had a period in 15 yrs. I think I have a yeast infection but when I used the vaginal applicator to apply the medication, it came out with some blood on it. I m also diabetic and this is the first yeast infection I ve had since way before I stopped having periods. Can a yeast infection cause some blood?
