I had a yeast infection at the beginning of my pregnancy and my doctor prescribed a one day treatment called Gynazole. Even with health insurance it's pricey but it was worth the money in my eyes, one day and gone. I haven't had any problems since.

I had a yeast infection at the beginning of my pregnancy, the doc told me to use either the monistat 1 day or 3 day.  Said they are stronger, and the 7 day may not be as effective since it is a longer time frame with not as strong of medicine in it.  I did the 3 day and it worked wonders.
