TMI... Question

[Krystal1228]

I'm 33 wks and 3 days.  My vag is really swollen and itchy around the opening. I haven't had sex in about two months. I don't think it's a yeast infection but don't know. Any suggestions.

you don't need to have sex to have a yeast infection. I'd say to tell your doctor and if it is she'll prescribe a cream. It's safer.

It could be bacterial Vaginosis.

Non sweetened plain Greek yogurts with no sugar it's kinda gross but smear it on and around and it helps. Leave on for 20 mins then rinse off. Don't use any soap. It's worked wonders on me

Warm water/ cold water cools it for me. DO NOT APPLY ANYTHING BEFORE TALKING TO DOCTOR!!! most vaginal creams r not so safe during pregnancy cos i was given 1 n told to apply only once.

My vagina is sore too and a little painful and a bit itch. Yeast and other vaginal infections were ruled out. Was told baby head might be testing exit. Lol...some went into labour a few days after this. So hoping i do cos am full term

You don't have to have sex to get a yeast infection. I've been prone to them since I was 13. A year after I started my period. And well before I was sexually active. Anyway there are a couple ways to clear it up. Miconazole is safe while pregnant. Your doc can prescribe you a pill. Or you can take a otc probiotic. I take a probiotic every 3-4 days. It does a good job at keeping them away.

Yep well I hope it gets cleared up! Good luck

I go in Thursday. Hopefully whatever it is it goes away fast, it's annoying. It only bugs me sometimes which is why I didn't think it was a yeast infection.

It sounds like a yeast infection. Either way I'd go see you doctor. Any kind of infection can cause problems
