Can a bad yeast infection cause early labor?

Question

This pregnancy it feels like I have battled nothing but yeast infections... I have done monistat 3 different times, added more yogurt into my diet but it never quite goes away. Well yesterday I did the 3 hr glucose test and by last night I had another full blown out infection and having a lot of painful contractions and I am only 31 weeks pregnant! Can the doctor prescribe me something stronger than monistat! I’m really frustrated and uncomfortable and it is putting a damper on the love life with the hubby! 😩

Answer

first of all stop having sex since you haven't gotten rid of you yeast infection you just passing it back and forth between him and yourself. You can add yogurt all day long but unless it's completely sugar-free yogurt you're just making it worse. You need to stop eating all processed foods and do not add any sugar to your diet at all whether it be food or beverage. You need to make sure you're wearing cotton underwear and at night no bottoms no underwear to allow your vagina to breathe. No soap on your genitals whatsoever. No harsh chemicals and sense in your laundry detergent do not use fabric softener do not use dryer sheets. You have to change your entire life style in order to prevent getting yeast infections.
