Question
i had an abortion 2 weeks ago. finished all the doxicyclyne and then took a diflucan as i am prone to yeast. my question is, although i am still bleeding slightly no foul odor, i resumed sex about a week ago (was told it was ok). but the inside of my vagina is burning a bit. is this a sign of an infection?
Answer
You may still have some yeast. I would just wait a week or two and see if it sort resolves it self. Then make sure you are lubricated when you are having intercourse--if you seem a little dry use an over the counter lubricant like KY Jelly. If it still burns let your doctor or clinic check you out.
