Re: yeast infections?
Call your doctor. I am prone to them so I asked mine & she said that it can be treated topically (no pills), but not to "overdo" any treatments.
I would call & get specific answers. They also may want to see you to make sure it is a YI and not something else.

Re: yeast infections?
ALso drink apple cider vinegar mixed with water - about a tablespoon vinegar to 3 T water - twice a day.
I got a yeast infection just before my IVF and did not want to mess up anything "in there" and the cider vinegar worked BETTER than Monistat-7 ever had.
I feel for ya!

Sorry, I have to laugh. I have Merry Maids coming today and that's the same formula they use to wash my hard wood floors.
But hey, whatever works.
Hope you feel better Megan!

I get these too- i use vagisil since it's just on the outside but find if I eat too much sugar- it comes worse- so also try to limit your white sugar intake (I went through about 3 pints of ice cream a week and when I did it was really bad).
