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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Gushing
Today, I've been having persistent fungal infections and was getting treated by a male gynecologist. I had to go in to give vaginal swab tests. I washed and cleaned before I left, but when I got on the doctor's table I already had so much discharge. The doctor asked, "Is it the medicine?" I had to say no. FML
Today, I learned I don't have a yeast infection. I have herpes. FML
Supportive
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
The smell of success
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
Waxing and waning
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

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.

I don't even know how it could happen! Idk how the applicator could get up there....I mean, seriously. The OP has to have never used a tampon before to not understand the logistics. And the pill looking thingy dissolves.....

I don't get it either, the applicator is very long, how the hell would you get it stuck in there? Have you never used tampons? Would you leave that applicator in there too? I hope you never have to use a rectal thermometer.

Guys, the tip broke off, or there was a tip you had to remove and she didn't remove it. The applicator isn't in there, just the tip. I'm really surprised at how many people didn't actually READ the anecdote.

She just needs her boyfriend to go diving for the tip

Even it the tip broke off, you can still get it out

Grapefruit, it is safe to assume that it didn't break off. The OP said it was too bad she didn't read the instructions. That would lead everyone to believe that it was her fault. Also, I've never known an applicator to have a tip that could be removed. As the comment above me says, she should still be able to get it out...unless it's tiny.

I agree, that's just weird. And the ****** is only four inches long, where on earth did it get stuck?

How the hell did you manage to do that? Seriously, I really think this must be fake. I've used the OTC stuff before and I still have no clue how that would happen...

Why was this comment moderated? I saw it when it was first posted and there was nothing bad in it. She was just saying that she thought the FML was fake.

It's in the rules that you can't call fake. It apparently "ruins it for everyone else"

That's really really dumb; because some of these are very obviously fake! Stupidity.

Ok, I'm sure it was just said in that way to add the shock factor/ridiculousness effect or whatever; but it sounds like the OP typed this FML with the applicator still lodged in her vag. "I now have to go to the doctor to get the applicator removed...but not before i awkwardly squat uncomfortable in my computer chair to let the world know of my stupidity over the internet".

We're lenient with these things. If you just call fake without bothering to give any reason or explanation for why you think it's fake, then chances are good the comment will be moderated. In this case, I don't see why #2's comment was moderated, so I've restored it :)

That is what WebMD is for. And to everyone saying that you have to have instructions for anything that goes in your vag... I'd like to see the instructions for a penis. Just saying.

Some guys could probably use the instructions. And women the world round would be thankful. But seriously...most things that are internal need instructions. And considering how many blood vessels run through vaginal walls, a lot of substances can be absorbed into the body that way. So most applicators, tampons, pills, et cetera have specific instructions. Mostly for cleanliness, but I guess...also so things don't get stuck?

The little yeast beasties always live in ******'s because they like warm moist places. But usually, they can't grow and reproduce so much because the mild acid fluid from the ****** stops them. But when a woman gets sperm in her ******, or when she has her period, or when she uses soap to wash it, the natural fluid loses its mild acidity. So then, the yeast can grown and reproduce until there are lots of little yeast beasties living there and they cause an infection. So basically, any woman can get it. The infection causes foul smelling vaginal fluid wich can look yellowish and crumbly. And it causes a really bad itch.
