Alright, I have a serious problem. I mentioned to her about going to see the gyno but she imediately stopped me and said she didn't want to talk about that. I did some reading up on yeast infections and told her I think that it could be what she has. However, she wants to keep this extremely confidential. So confidential that she doesn't want to even ask her mom to bring her to any doctor, let alone the gyno. She doesn't want anyone to know about her problem. She has a problem talking to her parents about these kinds of things, and I really wish she didn't.
She keeps telling me to put myself in her shoes. She's just too afraid to tell her mom about her problem which fritghens me. I told her yeast infections are easily curable with some cream. So now what she wants to do is go to the store by herself, buy some cream, and hope for the best. I read that if you apply a yeast infection cream to yourself and you really don't have a yeast infection, it could make it so that when she really does have an infection her body will be immune to the cream. I still need to tell her this, and I know it's really going to set her off. She's been frightened all day by this, we really just need closure.
I seriously do not know what to do. I know what she needs to do, but she doesn't see it like I do, which I understand. She's the one that's directly affected by it. Any ideas what I can say to her?
