Im 23 weeks pregnant and having vaginal yeast infection. The yeast infection was confirmed by a vaginal swab. There is no itching or burning sensation but there is whitish/yellowish thick discharge. My doc has prescribed Onabet V1 but Im not sure if its safe during during pregnancy or not. I was also given canesten cream to apply locally. Should I use onabet V1? Will it affect my baby?

Hi, You can take homoeopathic biochemic medicines which i would recommend you specially as it's very safe to take in pregnancy - Kali Mur. 6x and Calcarea Sulph. - take both 3 times a day daily for 1 month. Revert further guidance. Management: Avoid douching, tampons, tightfitting underwear Avoid sweets and yeast containing foods - cereals, pasta, cakes, breads, beer Eat a healthy balanced diet. Eat yogurt.
