Yeast infection

[MTB222]

So I've had a yeast infection since I found out I was pregnant.  My doctor finally gave me a prescription to get diflucan. But my insurance want pay for it because they he said it is a risk for the baby. Has this happened to anyone else?  Or have you taken diflucan and everything turned out fine?  Not to mention she only prescribe me 2 pills one every 24 hours and that's it.

I would either use Monistat or ask your doctor for the topical cream prescription. Ive had basic insurances that cover that so that I only pay about $10 for it. I've had 3 yeast infections and have never taken a pill for it.

Monistat 7 is the safest thing to use during pregnancy. I used it in early pregnancy with my 3 girls and there were healthy. if it was me don't use that prescription,  just the Monistat.  My doctor that I had, now I'm having my 5th baby and they say Monistat is the safest to use and you can even use the cheapest brand, it's all the same.
