You need to try to get to the doctor. It’s very important that you do not leave a yeast infection untreated for 3 weeks. The symptoms may get worse. Also, you will be unfamiliar with where and how to receive medical treatment in this foreign country. It would be for the best to get a prescription to take care of it.

you should deffo not leave it untreated as it will be very uncomfortable and cause pain. over the counter products such as canesten works well, with the oral tablet and the cream for external cream for itch relief.
or you could complete the mini online quiz to help you decide which product is best for you!
