[|Human|] hi, im lara, 21 y/o, height of 51 feet, 49kg. ive undergone urinalysis yesterday, and found out that i have UTI. but i dont want to take antibiotics because last time i took antibiotics i noticed that my tongue and vagina have yeast. and according to my research, yeast infection may occur after taking several antibiotics. ive got scared because this yeast infection is a STD right? but now, there is no more yeast on my urinalysis. im just afraid that it may come back if i take antibiotics. what should i do? thankyou.
[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to Chat Doctor forum. I appreciate your concerns. But, it is not common to get yeast infection on a single antibiotic course to treat UTI. It usually follows administration of multiple antibiotics simultaneously, that too for unusually long course. If you get it even on a single antibiotic course, definitely we have to look for any underlying cause for immunosuppression(like diabetes, HIV etc.). And, leaving an UTI untreated is not that good. It can lead to ascending infection leading to pyelonephritis, and may even affect our reproductive health. I usually give antibiotics like definite/norfloxacin(should not be pregnant) to my patients. Also, take plenty of fluids, and keep good oral and vaginal hygiene. I hope you will find this information useful. Thank you.
