The signs and symptoms are nothing alike. A yeast infection typically causes skin irritation or itching in the genital area, but not pelvic pain or tenderness on exam. Pelvic inflammatory diseases causes pelvic pain, pain on palpation of the ovaries/tubes, and pain with cervical motion.

Can infection cause infertility?

A yeast infection alone will not cause infertility, except in that you will be itchy and uncomfortable, and probably not in the mood for sex. However it is very important, especially if this is your first yeast infection, to see your doctor to confirm that it really is a yeast infection. Other conditions *can* cause infertility, and women who are not familiar with the difference may ignore them. Some of these conditions are pelvic infections, or the very common "bacterial vaginitis", which if untreated can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, and infertility. In addition, sexually transmitted diseases can be mistaken for a yeast infection; these include gonorrhea and herpes, both of which cause itching like a yeast infection. Symptoms of a yeast infection include itching, burning, redness, and irritation of the vaginal area, swelling of the vulva, painful or frequent urination, and excessive vaginal discharge that is thick and resembles cottage cheese (it also has a distinctive smell). Sex with a yeast infection can be painful due to these symptoms.

How would you differentiate between oral streptococci yeast and spirochaetes in your sample?

To differentiate between oral streptococci, yeast, and spirochaetes in a sample, you can use appropriate staining techniques such as Gram stain or special stains like periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) stain for yeast. Additionally, you can utilize microscopy to observe the morphology and arrangement of the microorganisms. Each group will have distinct characteristics - streptococci appear as gram-positive cocci, yeast as larger round cells, and spirochaetes as spiral-shaped bacteria.
