    Yeast infection?
    I'm 7 1/2 months pregnant and I think I might have a yeast infection. Will this go away on its own. Or should I consult my doctor about it?

    It will not go away on its own. Please consult your doctor about it before you try any home remedies as he may want to prescribe something for you before the baby arrives.

    This will not go on it's own and MUST be treated during pregnancy. Please do not try any home remedies.

    During pregnancy all infections MUST be treated accordingly. You will need an antifungal medication to get rid of this. Please contact your doctor ASAP.

    Hi! I'm six months pregnant and my special pregnant lady handbook, Guide to a Healthy Pregnancy, says that yeast infections are treatable with over the counter creams, but it may be a reoccuring problem until you have birth. It also says that you should call your doc and tell him your symptoms so he can diagnose the infection and recommend treatment. I had one a month ago and called the doc. She said for me to use Vagisil. It was gone in three days and haven't had one since! Good luck with your pregnancy!
