Vaginal yeast infection

Amazon One Medical offers multiple ways to get care from the comfort of your own home.

If you're a One Medical member and you live in a state where One Medical has offices, you can schedule Remote Visits with One Medical providers, which are billable to you or your health insurance. As a member, you can also get 24/7 on-demand virtual care with Treat Me Now or Urgent Video Chat via the One Medical app at no extra cost, no matter where you live in the United States.

If you're not a One Medical member, you can start a one-time virtual visit with Pay-per-visit. Pay-per-visit offers two types of telehealth for Amazon customers: video visits and message-only visits. Video visits are available for $49 in all 50 states and D.C. Message-only visits are currently available for $29 in 34 states.

To see your Pay-per-visit options, first choose your state.

Amazon One Medical doesn't accept health insurance for Pay-per-visit care. You can submit a claim to your insurance provider for reimbursement, but we can’t guarantee they’ll reimburse you for your one-time virtual visit.

If you normally use insurance to pay for your medications, you can do that with medications prescribed through all Amazon One Medical services. Amazon Pharmacy accepts most insurance plans. For other pharmacies, please talk with your pharmacy directly about insurance coverage. The cost of medication isn’t included in the cost of your visit.

If your provider can’t diagnose or treat your health issue through Pay-per-visit, they may recommend that you see a primary care provider or a specialist for in-person care. If that happens, you won't be charged.

If your provider didn't include refills with a prescription when they sent your treatment plan through Pay-per-visit, you'll need to start a new one-time virtual visit to request another prescription.

There are many reasons why a provider may decide that prescription refills aren't medically appropriate. For example, they may want to assess how well a medication is working and whether or not it needs to be adjusted before you continue with the same treatment.

Yeast infections are associated with recent antibiotic use, high blood sugar (if you have diabetes), and immunocompromising health conditions.

And because vaginal yeast infections can be influenced by hormones, symptoms are often worse in the week before you get your menstrual period. Pregnancy is also a major risk factor.

Vaginal yeast infections and BV are both types of vaginitis, which is the general name for inflammation of the vagina or vulva. BV is the most common type of vaginitis, followed by vaginal yeast infections, then trichomoniasis (also known as trich).

Vaginal yeast infections and BV have some overlapping symptoms, like itchiness and discomfort, but BV is associated with a fishy odor, while yeast discharge is odorless. BV discharge also tends to be thin, grayish, or foamy, while yeast infection discharge tends to be thick, white, or like cottage cheese.

You're in the right place to get vaginal yeast infection treatment. If you think you have BV, we recommend that you start from Amazon One Medical's Bacterial vaginosis (BV) page. If you think you have trich, you'll need to see a primary care provider for lab testing.

Yes. If you're experiencing a fungal skin infection, we recommend that you start from Amazon One Medical's Rash and skin infections page.

Yeast can become overgrown in many places, including in the mouth (called thrush or oral candidiasis) and in skin folds like the armpit.

No. If you've been treated for 3 or more vaginal yeast infections within the past 12 months, you'll need to see a primary care provider for a vaginal swab. This can help determine what kind of Candida is causing your yeast infections.

Recurrent yeast infections may require specialized medications.
