Today, I decided to treat my yeast infection over the counter to avoid going to the doctor. Too bad I didn't read the directions. Now I have to go to the doctor to get the tip of the applicator removed. FML

Today, after two rounds of antibiotics, I got a yeast infection. My husband started calling me "Yeasty." FML

Today, I realized my sister has a yeast infection. How, you ask? Her tube of yeast infection cream and my tube of toothpaste look remarkably similar. I'm still trying to get the taste out of my mouth. FML

Itchy and Scratchy

Today, I was getting ready for a very unpleasant doctor's appointment. I got out of the shower and used a new body spray all over my torso and arms. Turns out I'm allergic to it and now my skin is on fire, so now I get to go to an already uncomfortable appointment even more uncomfortable than I'd planned. FML

Today, I had to make a doctor's appointment for my daughter. Apparently she thought it would be better to wipe herself with Clorox tough scrub disinfecting wipes than tell me she'd caught an STD. FML

Today, I learned how awful intertrigo smells. I spent a ton of money and years of my life to become a health care provider apparently to treat the yeast infection between an obese woman's fat folds. FML

Today, I popped a zit and I went to put my acne medicine on it. It's in a clear bottle with a blue cap, just like the nearby nailpolish remover. I grabbed the wrong one. FML

Today, I went to the doctor's to get a checkup. When the nurse stuck the Otoscope into my ear to look, she was disgusted. When she pulled it out, she told me that I had an ear infection, and that she'd popped a pimple in there by mistake. FML

Today, I found out I have a yeast infection, a bladder infection, and a urinary tract infection all at the same time. Oh, and I also have the flu. FML

Today, my girlfriend helped me apply liquid bandaid over an open wound. Unfortunately, she grabbed the liquid wart remover instead. FML

You deserve it for arbitrarily cramming things in there. You're fortunate it's just an applicator.

Your ****** must be huge if you've been given directions. Most people just get instructions.

You deserve it. Read the ******* instructions on anything that you need to cram into your body. Common sense. You get no sympathy at all whatsoever from me. You are a ******* idiot.

And at 21 you've seen and done it all? I would say you are in the minority rather than the majority. Yeast infections are very easy to contract. Antibiotics, hormonal changes, douching, a lowered immune system....the list goes on and on. When and if it happens to you I hope someone is just as insensitive about your situation as you are now. That said, I DO have a hard time understanding how the "tip" came off. This scenario is not impossible, but it does seem improbable.

21 maybe; lady, definitely not. I'm 22 and I've never had one, but that does not mean I don't know how they happen or that I would stupidly blame someone for a generally unpreventable process.
