Yeast Between Breasts?

Question

Has anyone had problems with yeast between breasts during pregnancy? As gross as it sounds, it's simply an itchy/burning rash? Wondering how you all treated it? I haven't been told 100% but from everything I've read it is yeast due to breasts growing & rubbing together more!

Answer

Tell your OB, it's easily treated with a topical antifungal.

Answer

Have you tried switching to a prenatal with probiotics in it? I'm a "yeasty" person in general so I also eat homemade fermented foods every day to help keep it at bay.

Answer

I have that problem.. I use argan oil it prevents sweating and prevents the smells.. Saved my life!

Answer

Witch hazel is great for clearing that up and it's natural. You can get it anywhere usually by where the face wash/ astringent is.

Answer

I actually have this and didn't know that's what it was until my doctor told me during one of my checkups! She prescribed me a cream to put on it however it hasn't come into the pharmacy yet or I'd tell you how it was! My best advice right now would be that after a shower just make sure under breasts and that area are very dry and not left wet.. Sweat also plays a role in it I believe as well! Hope this helps!

Answer

I got it under my arms and on the inside of my elbow. My OB gave me a waxy cream that has been helping a lot but stop scratching!! It will make it spread. Hope you get better

Answer

Thanks, ladies!  I'm going to call my OB
