I've been having these problem in my vagina area:
Strong odor
Burning
Itching
Discharge

Are these signs of a yeast infection or something else? I really think it came from my ex when we tried a couple of months ago...it didn't go it but it touched,but my symptoms started the next day....

I cant honestly tell you but there are two things you can do....one you can go to the doctor...or you can get an over the counter test (looks almost like a pregnancy test) to see if you have a yeast infection or a UTI or other infections....I saw it on a commerical...im pretty sure its OTC .....good luck though...it must be very uncomfortable...i had a UTI before ....not fun at all...

Yep I agree.

And yeast infections happen not just because of sex. Any big change in the body's PH system can trigger it, especially if you've been on antibiotics recently. Stress can do it too.

Have you ever had a yeast infection (so that you know what they are like)? Strong odor is usually not a symptom of a yeast infection. What color is the discharge? Yeast is often white and clumpy. Trich is greenish and has a bad odor. Trich can be cured with one pill. There are other causes of infections too beides yeast and trich. Please see a doctor to get a diagnosis.

i wouldn't wait, if i were you. i had yeast infection big time one time when i was taking antibiotics. boy it spread up to my clitoris. you don't want a yeast infection to get to your clitoris - it hurts like bugger.
