* If you have a yeast infection, this is how you say it in Arabic (الالتهاب المهبلي) and French (candidose vaginale). You should ask the pharmacist for Pevaryl or Gyno Pevaryl, which are two yeast infection medications that are commonly sold in Morocco. If those are not available, you can also ask for Fluconazole, and the pharmacist should be able to give you medication that contains the necessary active ingredients.
* If you believe that you have a UTI (urinary tract infection), here's how you say it in French: IVU (Infection des voies urinaires). You can get typically medication at the pharmacy without a prescription. While it is generally recommended that you visit a health professional to confirm your results before taking treatment, it's not enforced in Morocco.
