Had anyone used monistat while pregnant? I am 6 weeks and having some symptoms of a yeast infection and i know i can't take diflucan in the first trimester
@shaneengregory29, No a mans penis does not give you yeast. A penis is a magical thing but it isn’t a yeast wand.
You naturally produce yeast and a yeast infection is an overthrow of that yeast as mentioned above called Candida Albicans.
Most often the overgrowth is caused by a fluctuation of hormones or if your PH balance is off. BV you can get from having sex (it’s not an STI) and is completely unrelated to yeast infections.
I had a yeast infection early and my OB told me to get it. I forget if there was a difference between using the 1 day or the week long one, like if the 1 day was too strong or something.
Wht cause yeast infec
