Question about yeast infection

[Raheena786]

I'm 31 week & 1 day pregnant. Vaginal Yeast Infection is getting wrose day by day. When I usually use vagina tablet I can't do it properly. Is it possible for nurse to do it if i request

If the nurse won’t, could your partner not help you x

Normally you need a 7 day course when pregnant not just one day, so I'd ask for a prescription.

Not sure why you can't do it yourself tho... It's not the easiest with a big tum but you could try whilst lying or sitting. You could ask your partner as mentioned. I doubt a nurse would be able to do this for 7 days if you're otherwise able bodied.

This may sound odd to you, but I highly recommend putting Greek/natural yogurt down there.. Lather like a thick cream. Got to be honest it was weird for me the first few times but for me it worked better than any tablet/creams I was prescribed

Do you mean thrush? I was only allowed canesten cream to use externally not the pessary and it had to be prescribed by the GP as the pharmacist wouldn't sell it over the counter knowing I was pregnant.
