Infection treatment
Posted: 04-25-08 11:20am

Ok, this really sucks but I need to do something. I started to experience pain and itching on the vulva Sunday. The pain and itching is now unbearable at times. There is no bad odor that I have noticed. But my discharge is yellow and like cottage cheese or just very clumpy.

The problem is 1. I am 21 weeks pregnant
and 2. Im allergic to vagisil and monistat - cream forms.

Is there a pill that I can get at the pharmacits? Or is this something I should have looked at by a doctor. Since I am pregnant what can I do at home to treat this? Also does this sound like yeast or something else?

My issue with seeing a doc is I have to go to a free clinic. I cant just make an appt like a regular doc.

Thanks

You should be seen by a doctor. It sounds like a yeast infection - they can be very common when pregnant because pregnancy is throwing your PH balance off.
