My poor little 17 month old had RSV last week which led to her developing an ear infection. Today I see that she has developed a yeast infection, probably because antibiotics often kill the good bacteria living down there.
I feel so bad that she is going through all of this at once! I had yeast infections as a child and my mom swears that plain yogurt is a miracle cure. I’m going to buy some tomorrow. Do you know of any good treatments for yeast infections? This is her first one… thanks! She has a follow up appointment next week to make sure that she has recovered from her RSV and ear infection. I’m confident that I can handle the yeast infection just fine, but obviously if it gets worse we’ll go straight to the doctor.
And I mean applying the yogurt to her vaginal area, not eating it… lol… just clarifying.
Well she does eat yogurt everyday. But applying it vaginally is a common treatment that helps to balance out the bacteria down there.

I was prescribed medication(cream) for what I thought to be a yeast infection, but I’m experiencing abdominal pain. I had trouble sleeping because of it. I’m going to try to make a doctor’s appointment today. Apparently this is something more serious, but what?
I just spoke with a nurse over the phone who swears it’s nothing to do with the medication, even though I haven’t experienced any pain until after I took the medicine. I’m not on my period. I don’t have cramps until after my period has started(which it hasn’t). I don’t know what to do.

My husband and I have been trying to have our first baby for 5 months now. Im ovulating this week until the 24th. My husband and I now the routine by now. We started to have sex when ovulation began, ever other day. But about a day ago I got a yeast infection. I called my doctor and scheduled an appointment for thursday, but I was wondering maybe from experience. Does a yeast infection decrease your chances on having a baby?

I am about 6 weeks pregnant and haven't been to my ob yet but I think I have a yeast infection. My first appointment isn't until June 9. Can I just use monistat? Or should I wait till I see her?
