Yes, most likely a result of the antibiotics given to you in the hospital. It never hurts to notify your doctor of any issues, but I'd start treating it with OTC creams like you usually would.

If you're not into more meds...you can use tea tree oil suppositories in the vagina...works like a charm. You can get them on Amazon.< /p>

I got a wicked yeast infection about 4 days post-op. I called my surgeon and they called in that one pill (like you take just 1 pill) and it cleared it right up.

I have never had a yeast infection before, ever, but 1 week out I started treating one....I was freaking out at first but I've read that it's pretty common. From medication to hormonal changes and the shock that the body is in, it can happen.

What are the symptoms because I had the sleeve last Saturday 28th and something is wrong with my vg. Itching, dryness, a little pain. .. it started happening days after surgery

Antibiotics do cause yeast infections. I got one too after surgery.

This post was a while back but I'm in the same boat. Can we use any over the counter wipes or anything right now? How did y'all clear things up?

I called my surgery nurse and she placed a prescription to Walmart it was one pill and it solved all the issues. Call your surgeons office and speak with the nurse.
