Feminine Itch
I am 6 weeks pregnant and have been itchy. There is no discharge associated with it - just itchy. I'm chalking it up to a surge of hormones. Anyone else experience this? This didn't happen with my other pregnancies. Thanks!

Re: Feminine Itch
I did not experience this but I have heard of it.
Give a call to your OB's office - they'll likely tell you that it is common and might suggest something to help it. If there's no odor or discharge you should be fine but they'll tell you for sure.

Re: Feminine Itch
I would call your OB. You can have a yeast infection with no discharge.

Re: Feminine Itch
Thanks everyone. I just called but the office is closed. To the PP, when you had your yeast infection, did you take monistat? Is it safe?

I had a yeast infection early on with both pregnancies bc of hormonal inbalance. Monistat is fine but the 7 day one. My Ob said don't take the 1 or 3 day bc it's super strong

Thanks for info! I got an appointment tomorrow afternoon. I was hoping they would just say take monistat, but they want to see me. Ugh.

Re: Feminine Itch
they gave me a 3 day prescription cream. I actually had 2 this pregnancy but one was due to the fact I was already on antibiotics for a cold which caused the yeast infection. the second infection I knew right away, my crotch was on fire lol, it was crazy itchy where I couldn't even sleep. very annoying but they say women are prone to yeast infections when pregnant. I never get them normally and didn't have any with my first dd.

Sounds like a yeast infection which I had more than once during my pregnancy. I first started out with the 3 day prescription cream that came with an applicator so that you could really get it up there. After my first yeast infection, I asked instead for an oral antibiotic as I found the cream and application of it annoying and frankly hated feeling "squishy" down there throughout the day -- rather pop a pill.
