I developed thrush over two weeks ago. Currently 3 months pregnant and back then I contacted my GP right away and got prescribed some cream. It’s been over two weeks of applying twice a day and it’s not gone! Any tips ladies? What should I do ðŸ˜

It does come with applicator but you are not meant to use it while pregnant due to it possibly causing damage to your cervix if you insert it too deep (thats what i was told by several gynos)

I’ve been told to not use the applicator too even though I have as my fingers won’t get far up 😂 but I’ve been having chronic thrush and the midwife told me I’m just unlucky and it can happen a lot this time and just won’t go due to the hormonal changes

Girl get some virgin cold pressed coconut oil on a pad /panty liner 2x a day for couple of hours, that should help a ton

Thanks I’ll try it x

I had this too at 3 months. When I picked up my prescription from the GP, the pharmacist said it will take a while to go because of being pregnant. It will get better I promise, stick to the cream and let everything breathe during the night, that seemed to help me loads! Xxx
oh no I hate that this could last long 😠Should I ask my gp if it’s safe to keep using the cream beyond 2 weeks? Because I’ve also read there’s a limit to how long you can be on it x
I’ve also been told to put natural yogurt as a mask down there and wash off 😅 idk about that one?
