If you are over the age of 18, regardless if you are sexually active or not, you should go to a gynocologist once. It probably is a yeast infection, and about a bazillion different things can cause yeast infections (Do a search on yeast infection onTFP and you will get back scads of threads - or visit the ladies lounge) However, self medicating unless you have had a diagnosis isn't the best thing.

You can always bring your mom, or a sister or a friend to the doctor with you, it's really not that scary -- it's not among my list of favorite things to do.. but it takes only a few moments to give you peace of mind.

(Do a search on TFP for gynocologist - there's a few threads on first time visits as well)
