irritated down there bad....

After taking some antibiotics for a uti I have been very irritated down there to the point it makes me wanna cry.! I dnt have an std bc I dnt have sex I haven't had sex since I been pregnant.. And I only use one kind of soap bc some of the other brands gives me an allergic reaction & I will break out in hives all over my body... I wonder if its bc of those pills. I was also taking meds for pain, contractions, & something else I forgot. But ever since I have finished I have been dealing with this irritation why is this happening to me... I'm cry while typing this post its killing me & I'm not used to anything like this at all...

Yeast infections are the worst! They are just miserable I swear! I cried when I had one too because it was so annoying I couldn't handle it. It'll all be okay though I promise! Just get sone monistat cream!

Okay. I'm going to call my Dr in the morning & see what he says. Then I'm going to get that creme to see if that works. I can't deal with this pain, itching, nor all that nasty discharge.! Its more than I can handle especially with it being my 1st one. I thought I was losing my mind..

I have never had a yeast infection until I got pregnant. I tried monistate 7 and it was the worst idea ever! It just didn't work for me and made it worse, the doctor prescribed me a pill and by the next day I was feeling better(:
Hope you feel better cause I know the pain and I couldn't stand it either!

Yeah girl it's yeast. Make sure to read the label on monistat make sure it's safe for pregos unless u go to your doc. in the mean time just drink a lot of water ... theirs some home remedies but just go get the creme you'll feel better instantly even tho it'll be a mess in the morning lok

I'd suggest the seven day treatment since your extremely irritated, sometimes the three day high dose will get rid of it and come right back. Seven days is a lower dose and gives it a longer time to get it completely gone. And girl I know how it is!!! Ugh

You're not supposed to take the pills while pregnant. And they have 3 day creams as well. The one my doctor prescribed was 3 days and they have 3 day monistat. I think you aren't supposed to use the one day kinda because its too strong and can harm your baby

Antibiotics can mess with your PH balance and you most likely have a yeast infection. I would double check with a doctor and they will probably give you some cream for both internal and external to help with irritation. I had never had a yeast infection before and I've gotten 2 since I've been pregnant!
