How To Prevent And Treat A Yeast Infection During Pregnancy
Is there a way to prevent and cure yeast infections during pregnancy? This is a big puzzle to a lot of pregnant women out there. I in fact don’t think yeast infections are prevented while pregnant because our bodies produce so much yeast, but if it makes you feel better, everyone pregnant gets yeast infection at one time or another and when you see your doctor he will prescribe you something that will make you and your would be baby feel better.
Monistat certainly, or some other treatment options can be utilized to get rid of a yeast infection during pregnancy – just get the clear with your doctor as they (the medicine makers) want you not to take it without doctor approval because there’s a chance it is not a yeast infection you maybe having, but an STD and yeast infection medication will not help that.
Preventing it means a reduced amount of sugar ( thats when you have a yeast infection when pregnant), no juices, and eat more yogurt or some probiotic foods. Despite the fact that I really don’t know how to prevent them entirely, there are tons of methods to manage or better handle them. My OB gave me a prescription for cream to inject every night for a week to help me heal. Eating yogurt may help keep the bacteria down there where it needs to be and can also help in healing a yeast infection. You can also choose to only use Monistat 3. Use it at bedtime for three nights. Consume plenty of yogurt. Drink plenty of water. It should clear it up. If not, see your obgyn. But you should see your doctor first.
I’ve only ever tried yogurt for prevention while taking antibiotics. I think it really works and I just used normal store bought yogurt. I do not think antibiotics is how they usually treat a yeast infection but I heard eating yogurt and cutting down on sweets and sugary food helps because yeast thrives on it. But in case your symptoms don’t disappear in two or three days, go to the hospital. Those infections can become serious if let to get out of hand.
Keep away from dairy products. Monistat you can buy at any store basically, it’s not an antibiotic its over-the-counter and it works. A lot of people swear by yogurt or inserting a clove of garlic, Its worth a shot I guess. Also most infections will let up or go away when you get your period since the pH balance changes and yeast finds it more difficult to survive then. Doctor – they’ll likely prescribe you an anti-fungal, either in a cream or tablet format.
A more holistic method for curing a yeast infection during pregnancy would be to take acidophilus, which is the active bacterial found in most yogurts. Though I don’t know just how much you will have to take to kill enough of the yeast colony for relief. If you ask me, I probably would opt for the pill and then take acidophilus afterwards to rebalance everything in my system for a couple of months. But that is just my opinion.
