yeast infection

[Courteney_Jade]

I was out on antibiotics for 5 days for a water infection, i now think i have a yeast infection. Is this common? I've booked an appointment for the doctors this afternoon. and is it serious? x

[Courteney_Jade]

I got this pill and cream, I've done what the instructions said. tho doctors said its better to use your hand instead of the applicator x

Usually just a cream, I've never had to take a pill for it. It's usually inserted with a tampon like applicator.

If you are pregnant it has to be the cream

[katerz123]

No it is not serious at all. I had one a few months ago, my dr said it is common during pregnancy. She had me get an over the counter cream that you insert for 7 days

[Courteney_Jade]

Do you use creams or take pills? X

[KTowne]

Ohh I get them a LOT while pregnant, it's pretty common actually, easily fixed! :)

I've booked an appointment for tonight, and thank you. I've never had yeast infection before so I was curious x

Yeast infections caused from antibiotics are very common, I'd definitely talk to your doctor about it but a yeast infection is nothing to worry about!
