Pregnant with yeast infection Posted: 01-20-08 14:02pm
With my first pregnancy I got a yeast
infection and nothing I did would get rid
of it, but it didnt really bother me it
wasnt itchy or anything. And now with this
pregnancy I have a yeast infection again
and I know im going to have it the entire
pregnancy but this time it really bothers
me. And nothing I do helps. Ive been to
the doctors about it but they just tell
me to use the creams, but they dont work.
Has anyone else experienced this or know
anything that might help? I heard eating
yogurt can help with yeast infections is
this true?

Yes - it is true that eating active
yogurts (with real bacteria inside) can
reduce the symptoms of a yeast infection.
This is b/c yogurt contains healthy
bacteria that promote the growth of the
healthy intestinal flora. Most people
don't know it, but yeast growth actually
BEGING in the intestines. What we
experience as a vaginal yeast infection is
actually a manifestation of this. So,
check for an active yogurt.... not just
the sugary ones with flavors. Or, you can
try acidophilus, which can tend to be
expensive, but is like a mega-dose of the
bacteria that is found in yogurt. You'll
need to use it regularly.
Other helpful and natural alternatives for
treating Yeast Infections include Vitamin
D tablets and watching your intake of
bread (which contains yeast) and other
sugar (pastas, rice, etc.) Good luck!
