I went to my doctor and she told me monistat was on the safe list and that I did indeed have a yeast infection!
I've only had a yeast infection one time & it was during this pregnancy, monistat actually didn't help me & I had to go a week suffering from it waiting for the doctors results just to find out it was actually a yeast infection which is what he thought it was but they couldn't give me anything until the results, either way I got monistat 7 & it didn't help me, but everyone is different. I just used ice packs until I got a prescription.
I suggest you go to the doctor and confirm if it's a yeast infection or not. If you treat yourself for yeast infection and have a bacterial vaginosis instead, you will only make it worse.
I am trying to get over a yeast infection any ideas to help me get over it sooner?
Possible thrush? It's safe to use treatment during pregnancy, just be sure to check with the pharmacist. I am 6+ weeks and have just been diagnosed with this. I know how intensely itchy it is.
I have had a few yeast infections, but not yet during pregnancy. They are not a big deal, not dangerous to your baby, and you can get suppository medicine to make it go away, so try not to worry. Here is a link with some information about yeast infections during pregnancy, I hope it helps you feel better: http://www.babycenter.com/0_yeast-infections-during-pregnancy_485.
I think so? I've never had a yeast infection (knock on wood), but I'm pretty sure the cream is safe. Check with your doc/midwife just in case.
Has anyone had a yeast infection before? I'm 35 weeks and I'm dealing with a yeast infection right now. I'm treating it with a cream that my doctor prescribed me, but I've been getting a pink discharge after I wipe myself, well everytime I put on the cream. Can it be the cream that's causing the pink discharge? Im so lost this is my first pregnancy and this is the first time that I've gotten a yeast infection.
Monistat or something similar is safe to take during pregnancy and if the baby is born vaginally while you have a yeast infection, he or she could end up with thrush in his mouth and that would be much trickier to get rid of.
Unfortunately, yeast infections are just more likely to happen during pregnancy. I never had one in my life until I got pregnant and now I've had two! Both were diagnosed by my midwife and both times they told me to take the over the counter remedy.
I'm 32w5d & I developed my first yeast infection during pregnancy less than a week ago.. you can use the monistat, but I'd tried something similar to that before & it just didn't work for me..
my OB prescribed a 7-day treatment called "Terconazole" vaginal cream.. you insert an applicator full for 7 nights at bedtime, and it works miracles. I've also been using Vagisil for relief. tonight will be my 5th night, and I'm so relieved!!
I have recently discovered (myself, not by dr. ) that I have a yeast infection and I would like to know if anyone has any ideas of O.C. meds that work without concern of fetal danger. My OB is closed on thw weekends and would like some relief before Monday. Please help. Ive read Monistat is ok, but also some bad comments too. Any advice would help.
Anyone else get a yeast infection while pregnant? I'm extremely itchy down there and I was wondering what you used!
It's common. I had one too and my doc told me monistat was safe. Good luck.
