How horrible for you I also had it extremely bad from about 9 weeks of pregnancy until 35 weeks. I was about 3 times the size I should be down there and it was just running out of me, sorry if tmi!!
I used Nilstat and Canestan, both to no avail (about 10 courses or more of each!!). I used yoghurt even, which felt nice cause it was cold but didn't really help.
I ended up begging the chemist to give me the oral form of canestan and it cleared up. It was the only thing that helped me.
I had nasty thrush earlier in the pregnancy - before my gestational diabetes kicked in. Diet is important. Get your blood sugar tested just in case. The organic yoghurt on the outside is also helpful as well as the canesten. It took me three tubes and one lot with the internal applicators for it to settle. It is fine at the moment
yep I can relate to this Hormones make me get thrush, I can't even use the pill. One of the ways I knew I was pregnant was thrush!! Now I have a second great suprise - ORAL THRUSH!! HIDEOUS!!
So tomorrow I am going to buy some of the good bacteria tabs and I have cut out all sugar...hope to see an improvement.
Good luck!!
