Yeast Infection in Early Pregnancy (5wks)

by natemomma27, May 27, 2008 10:25AM
**TMI**

I am about 5w3d and I think I may have a yeast infection. I'm having a light yellowish discharge and my vagina is a little itchy and after sex felt like it was burning. Is Monistat(sp) safe to take this early? I have a prenatal appointment tomorrow (just with a nurse, no doctor) should I just bring it up then?

I would definitely talk to your Doctor or Midwife before taking anything at all. I had a yeast infection very early on in pregnancy as well and my doctor prescribed a one dose treatment called Gynazole that worked quite effectively. It was expensive even with insurance but it worked really well for me. I would definitely call your doctor however before doing anything.
