I had a bad case of it in tri one - my GP gave me a pessary which cleared it up - it was so bad I made myself bleed

Thank girls, I went and got he cream yesterday and it helped ease the pain a little its so uncomfortable though and makes me up at night its so itchy!!! xx

hey yes ive had it pretty much since start of my pregnancy, cranberry juice helped but i wasnt itchy so didnt use cream i just had the discharge sorry tmi and they wont give me a pesary as im still in tri 1 oo the joys x

Yes I was suffering horrendously with it and nothing seemed to clear it up. I was getting through tubes of the cream.

I went to the docs and he prescribed 3 doses of the pessary, to use once a week for 3 weeks.

He also took some swabs and it turned out I had Bacterial Vagninosis - nice - which he prescribed a gel I had to insert daily for 5 days.

Fortunately, both treatments have worked and I am itch and discharge free (and have been for several weeks now!)

Hope this helps

I've had it 3 times and it drives me mad. Natural yougurt is good. Midwife said canestan is fine when pregnant and to ask GP for a prescription for it. I just used yogurt but if I get it again I'll be going for canestan xxx
