Is it ok to use over the counter meds for ueast infection, while pregnant? 19 weeks and pretty sure i have yeast infection. No opening with clinic until tomorrow. I've only had one other inflection last year but wasn't pregnant.

You can definitely use monistat; however, organic coconut oil inserted into the vajayjay will get rid of it ASAP. Also, even if you decide to use the monistat by itself, adding solid coconut oil to the perimeter or as a lube to insert the monistat will stop the itch that monistat usually intensifies. Best wishes.

Yes they told me to try monistat but that didn't work so they prescribed me some other cream.
