Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Yeast Infection

hello dear doctor, im 21 and virgin. about 10 days ago i got vaginal yeast infection, now im good because i used coconut oil, (i put coconut oil into my vagina, it worked. now i dont have yeast infection. BUT, now i see changes in my vaginal opening, and the outer lips of my vulva. i think the shape of them have changed. i am so afraid, i wonder if anything like diseases or shape changing cause hymen break or not? because the only thing i am terrifying of is losing my hymen.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Vaginal yeast infection does not cause change in the shape of vulva and rupture of hymen.
Infection can cause swelling of the vulva.
Infection should be confirmed by vaginal swab test and urine tests after consulting the gynecologist.
Coconut oil does not treat the infections.
Take following advice:
Take single dose of azithromycin + tinidazole + flucanazole
Vaginal suppository of clotrimazole and lactobacillus.
Maintain proper pelvic hygiene by using v-Vaginal plus wash.
Wear pure cotton loose undergarments.
Wash vagina with warm salted water 2-3 times per day.
So do not worry it will not affect the hymen.
Or no any disease that cause hymen rupture.
Hymen rupture by penetrative intercourse, cycling, rope climbing, horse riding and heavy pelvic exercise.
Hope this may help you
