Avatar n tn The less yeast he has the less yeast you will have. Also, I find that during the week before my period starts I am much more prone to yeast infections and of course if I eat a lot of sugar or drink several glasses (sometimes just 1) of wine. It takes a lot of monitoring! Good luck!
Avatar f tn A yeast infection will itch. If pads were causing issues, perhaps any product you are using is also doing that? Are you highly sensitive in general with skin irritation and things like that? So, yeast and itching is something I read on this forum a lot that happens around women's period. The ph of the vagina is such that if it is imbalanced, yeast can grow. Does it go away as soon as you get your period?
1138188 tn?1312341243 Unfortunately some women are prone to recurrent yeast infections during pregnancy. Unless your doctor has told you specific OTC brands of yeast medication that are safe to use it is NOT adviseable to use OTC remedies as not all of them are safe. You really need to see you obgyn to get a prescription for something that can help knock this out instead of just making it become dormant for a short period of time.
Avatar f tn Seven months ago my boyfriend and I began having sex, and about two weeks later I started my period but noticed that I was having major pain and itching internally and externally towards the end of my period.

Avatar f tn ve never heard of that antibiotic, and my mother works for a gyno. But I have had three during my pregnancy, I am 35weeks. They were the most horrible yeast infections I have EVER had. I used only monistat. I did use the cream one time, but it didn't help and didn't work, and it's not my preference in general, but the pill type one that is inserted the same way, worked best and staid in best. I did it right before bed. Seven day is probably best.

Avatar f tn m in my first trimester and pregnancy is already making me experience the wonderful world of yeast infections. I went to the doctor to make sure it is indeed a yeast infection and it is. He didn't prescribe me anything because he said it's too early and to wait until the second trimester, but I've heard of natural remedies, such as the garlic clove in the vagina that cures yeast infections. Has anyone tried this during pregnancy? Is it safe?
Avatar n tn Its very common to get multiple yeast infections during pregnancy. There isn't really any way of preventing as hormones change constantly. Speak with your doctor to see about preventatives but I've learned they don't help much.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had multiple yeast/BV infections? I've had 3 so far and I think I'm having another! I'm going to ob tomorrow and I'm sure I'll get some meds. It's frustrating. Anyone Else?!?! Please help.
Avatar f tn Certain pads, scented/whatever your currently using, can cause itching and burning that is similar to vaginal yeast infections. What my doctor recommended was when I was off my period to not wear any pad. And when I'm on my period definitely use one but make sure not to wear tight clothing, because that can cause the liquids to become trapped and cause more itching and burning. Hope this helps.
Avatar f tn s been ahwil since I have ha any symptoms of a yeast infections. Every once in awhile I will get some discharge with a smelly odour. I had to take a pill once a month from the doctor to treat it along with suppositories.. Sex was too painful as well and so it's been about a year that this has been going on. I went to a gynecologist yesturday and he said that he didn't see any infection at all and thinks that the infection is gone.

Avatar f tn Hello you all, I am battling an itchy vagina during my period. I am sort of leaning on that it's hormones that's making me itch during ovulation and period. During ovulation, I have no specific odor or weird discharge. Days after ovulation the itch leaves. Then days leading up to my period I had runny stool and the stool happens to go into my vagina region. I hopped in the shower hoping to wipe and clean all of the stool.
