absolutely out of control yeast infection! HELP!

[Fizzybear]

Went to my midwife yesterday to get checked out for my 3rd yeast infection in a month, and she found no live yeast, and no reason I should be this uncomfortable...but the itching and pain is extreme and unbearable. I am actually completely swollen down there and she has no clue why! I don't know what to do it hurts so bad and I've never been swollen this bad! No burning when I pee or anything and no blisters or bumps at all...just completely itchy painful and swollen...I see her again on Thursday but until then what the heck do I do? I've got some benzocaine spray she told me to use and I've been taking vinegar baths but nothing Is helping its just getting worse...

I got treated for bv and it was what caused the first yeast infection ):

Maybe your doctor should treat you for BV instead of an yeast infection it might work

I had the same problem with the swelling and itchiness, and I done some research and since we discharge a lot more while pregnant it can make the area a lot more moist an causes it to be swollen an irritated and sometimes even itchy, so I use regular panty liners to help maintain dryness an the irritation has completly stopped for me.
