Yeast Infections? Posted: 07-18-06 19:01pm
If anyone can help me with a few simple
questions about yeast infection because I
think I have it, that would be helpful
what are yeast infections?
How do you get them?
What symptoms do you get?
How do you diagnose it?
How would you treat it?
Many thanks x

If I remeber you cant use med to treat it
during pregnancy but yogurt/cranberry
juice are naturally ways to help..
Yeast infections kinda smell funny not
like yeast from bread more like beer and
you get itchy with dicharge could of just
been the pregnancy, I never had a yeast
infection till I got preggo has something
to do with hormones.
Things that can cause yeats infections
~douching
~using alot of perfumed product to wash
with
~not enough good bacteria etc
talk to your dr before using the treatment
btw I know this sounds gross but I got a
yeast infection in my mouth all from
hormones it was nasty I think its called
thrush but you have to gargle this nasty
crap

My baby got it...It ws ok though.
They say it's from certain bacteria that
the babies are exposed to in the vagina
through birth.
It can also be from letting milk set in
the baby's mouth. It creates a perfect
environment for yeast to grow and
multiply!!
I had to give her medicne 4 times a day
((which sucked!!))
it smelled like she was holding bread ball
in her mouth! Yuck!!
