Avatar f tn If you have a yeast infection the doc told me that Monstat is good to use while pregnant but I would have it checked out by the doc 1st b/c that's what I thought I had 2 & it wasn't that. I had Bacterial Vaginouses. Don't ask what that is I have no clue. I get the weirdest things down below. I am always getting UTI's and I was tested positive for the Group B Strep too. Lucky me, right.
Avatar n tn No chunky discharge (just my normal discharge that has never been anywhere near the chunky cottage cheese thats supposed to signify a yeast infection), no irritation, burning or pain. The only thing I can think she might have mistaken is that I was still slightly inflamed from Friday (my boyfriend came over and things were rather... vigorous for a prolonged period of time). I havent begun treatment yet because Im not convinced that I have a yeast infection... Could my dr have been wrong?
Avatar f tn Is there any home remedies that are safe in pregnancy to get rid of a yeast infection? I have already had it twice ans took that one day pill form of it. Just found out its listed as category c so that kind of annoyed me how my dr just acted like it was completely safe. I also really dont want to shoot medicine up there because it just sounds really difficult... any suggestions??

Avatar f tn Did you take a test to confirm you have a yeast infection? There are OTC test strips for this purpose. As Steph said, Monistat can be used to treat a yeast infection if thats what you have.
Avatar f tn -) it would stink to spend money on all that yeast infection stuff if you just need some antibiotics.
Avatar f tn m super uncomfortable still. Anyone ever had a yeast infection even pregnant? How long did your symptoms last?

6498330 tn?1389709379 If its just a yeast infection you can use monistat safely. Eating yogurt daily and reducing the amount of bread you eat is supposed to help prevent future yeast infections.
Avatar f tn Don't take antibiotics for a yeast infection! You need to good flora to fight the yeast. Eat lots of plain yogurt, garlic and cut down sugars (they feed yeast and can make it sooop strong and hard to fight). This may seem gross or tmi, but a natural way to help it is to put plain yogurt up there. Use a syringe or something. It really helps.
