Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 I should also mention I've had tinea veriscolor in the same area in the past but it had eventually went away, yet, now, I have had it for as long as I've had VV.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2006 Report Share Posted December 31, 2006 I believe that Tinea Versicolor is a different kind of yeast than the vaginal infections are so it seems unlikely that it would be much related. If one puts vinegar in the laundry with their underwear the yeast will be much lessened if you are worried about that. In fact soaking it in a more concentrated vinegar solution would even be better. The vinegar will kill fungus. --- prvtprivate wrote: > Here is a question that may not have been asked. > > I have tinea versicolor on my thighs that I cannot > get rid of (a > skin fungal infection). > > Can this pass itself to the vaginal area via spore > migration, or > through the action of drawing up clothing to the > waist while > dressing, such as putting on panties? > > If so, can this fungal infection cause a vaginal > yeast infection? > > I was told by a gyno that vaginal yeast infections > CAN cause skin > fungal infections, but I wonder if the reverse is > true as well? > > > > __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
