TMI.. but please read

I'm 20 weeks and have had a horrible yeast infection for 3 weeks now. My nurse recommended monastat but I've used it before but I couldn't handle the burning. It's there any other way than using medication to get rid of a yeast infection? I've been trying to keep the amount of chemicals I put into my body.

Did they test you and it was yeast? If so I've douched with Braggs apple cidar vinegar and it's helped and I used to have chronic yeast infections that medicine didn't get rid of. However if they did test you and it was positive they should have prescribed you something. Although the last time I thought I had a yeast infection it was actually bacterial vaginosis and they gave me an antibiotic for two weeks.
