Can you get a yeast infection while on the patch?
You can get a yeast infection at any time. Hormone contraceptives make it more likely. Wear cotton panties and don't wear tight pants or nylon pantyhose. Always wipe yourself from front to back after using the bathroom, wash with a very mild soap and don't douche. Try eating 'live' yogurt because that will put back the natural bacteria that helps stop the yeasts. If you know it is a yeast infection ask your pharmacy what they recommend, and make sure your partner uses cream as well or he will just give it back to you.
What could cause pain and pressure behind the naval along with an odd smelling discharge?
Sounds like a yeast infection. The smell and discharge really makes me think it is a yeast infection. Go to the drugstore and get a cream for a yeast infection. Make sure you wash your hands real well after applying the cream because it can spread by touching it. Apply the cream for 7 days. If you are wearing tight clothing this could be one of the causes.

Generally, if you practice good vagina health--clean underwear with a cotton, breathable crotch, showers rather than baths, no use of douches or perfumed hygiene sprays--yeast infections don't happen or are a rarity. If you have one, visit your doctor for a prescription to clear it for once and for all. If you are sexually active, make sure that your partner is not the one passing on the infection to you--ask him to wash up before getting down to business.

If you are getting repeated yeast infections, you'll need to visit your doctor and examine your practices as to why they are happening.
