Whats the difference between a yeast infection and genital herpes?

What are symptoms of each? Is it obvious when you have one or the other or can only a doctor tell you? How do you know when you have one or the other?

    Herpes: painful, blistery ulcers, flu-like symptoms, in women, perhaps some increased discharge.

    Yeast: itching, redness, possibly some peeling skin or slight rash. Women may also have yeasty-smelling, lumpy (cottage cheese like) discharge.

    I suppose the initial redness and tingling/itching of herpes could be mistaken for a yeast infection, but once the blisters/sores appear, it's pretty obvious.

    My best friend has had genital herpes for about eight months now, and it's been really rough. She's had about 7 outbreaks. Everywhere I read it says it stops flaring up so much after time, but its not getting less frequent for her. She's been on Antiviral meds the whole time, too. She also has type 1 diabetes which she has had her whole life, which really weakens her immune system. Will it ever get better?

    But after a friend share this video everything has changed.

    Natural Safe Herpes Remedy?

  • 6 years ago

    I got clinically diagnosed with herpes (type 2) about 3 yrs ago, when I was still in college and had a silly one-night stand. I know loads of girls say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a massive mistake that one time and suddenly it seemed like I was going to have to live with the consequences for the rest of my life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date men again. In the end, who wants to go out with someone that has sores around her "you know what" area? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/E89GU everything improved.

    Not only was I able to remove all traces of the herpes simplex virus from my system in less than 21 days, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so fortunate to write that just last week, in front of everyone in a crowded restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me! This system provided me the opportunity to be happy and experience true love again. Now I want to help others by sharing this story.

    Herpes is a virus, yeast infection is a bacterial infection.

    Herpes is cold sores, yeast infection is bacteria.

    Herpes treatment requires creams to treat the sores, there is a pill that keeps them from breaking out

    Yeast infections require antibiotics to kill the bacteria
