Halp!!! (a little tmi)

[littlemisschatty]

Ok so I just finished a round of antibiotic. Today I feel that twinge of possible yeast infection. Which ALWAYS happens to me when I take anitbiotics. I am sooo mad at myself bc I completely forgot to take those acidopholus (sp?) pills that help me to prevent a yeast inf. Dammit.

OF COURSE my FW is set to begin this weekend. So what do I do???
I have to prevent this from getting worse. Should I take the pills or get a cream (even if I am not really sure if I have a YI yet?)

Arghhh

If it's just a "twinge" and not a full on infection, I would take some acidophilus, eat a bunch of yogurt, and drink a ton of water. This worked for me a couple of months ago when I thought I was getting one.

Or, you could try a one-day treatment. I use the one that's an ovule, rather than a cream. I wonder how either would affect your FW.

Ditto pp - cranberry juice, yogurt, whatever you think might keep it from fully developing.

I got the acidopholus and will take it with dinner tonight. Cross fingers please

I don't think you're supposed to take the oral treatments when you're pg. Double check that, because I'm not sure. But I'd do the creams just to safe.

Yes, lots and lots of yogurt! I ate like two or three a day when I thought I was getting one.
