What do the results mean?
If your results indicate a yeast infection, your health care provider may recommend an over-the-counter antifungal medicine or prescribe an antifungal medicine. Depending on where your infection is, you may need a vaginal suppository, a medicine applied directly to the skin, or a pill. Your health care provider will tell you which treatment is best for you.
It’s important to take all your medicine as prescribed, even if you feel better sooner. Many yeast infections get better after a few days or weeks of treatment, but certain fungal infections may need to be treated for several months or longer before they clear up.Learn more about laboratory tests, reference ranges, and understanding results.
