Most women (80-90%) with chlamydia have no symptoms at all. Those who have symptoms may have painful urination, unusual yellow vaginal discharge, bleeding between periods or after sex, and pelvic pain. In contrast, yeast infections -- really, an imbalance or overgrowth of yeast -- can cause a white, cottage cheese-like discharge and vulvar or vaginal itching, redness, and irritation.

A yeast infection can happen in the mouth, or in the throat. It can happen on the skin, in the armpits, on the feet, under the breasts or in folds of fat; and pretty much anywhere.Anywhere a moist, warm fleshy area can develop and be left alone without cleansing it is possible for candida fungus to grow.Yeast infections that occur in other locations (or in children) are often given a variant name even though they are technically the same fungal growth.For example a yeast infection in a child's mouth is typically called thrush mouth; to avoid the stigma of associating a vaginal infection with a child's mouth infection even though they are both technically from the same yeast fungus.A yeast infection in a man's armpit is usually called intertrigo.There are a variety of terms used for the same identical (candida) yeast infection depending on gender, age and body location.
