Yeast infection and TTC

jennh75b · May 2016

Ugh. So AF is gone but now I have an apparent yeast infection - I was in denial yesterday but I definitely have one. I'm all worried now since we should start our BD efforts this Thurs/Fri. I don't get these too often so don't have a lot of experience with how long they last. I typically just buy the one night treatment and it usually goes away but I really don't know how long these things linger. I really don't want to miss out on starting late or not at all. I don't want to give the infection to H, either. What do you all know about this? Have first-hand experience? I don't think I've had one since TTC so it wasn't really an issue what time of the month I had one before.

I might reach out to my RE to ask about it, too.

My RE just said if the symptoms resolve by using Monistat then there shouldn't be a concern. Here's to hoping this does the trick tonight!

I'm so sick of worrying about if I get sick, if I get this or that during O...it's driving me nuts. I'm sure it will be ten times worse if/when I get a BFP, though. I was watching Mike & Molly when they adopted a baby and her mom said "honey, you're about to be a mom, worrying is not going away anytime soon" or something to that effect. I guess I need to get used to this.

I know that I've asked about if having a yeast infection can hurt my chances of getting pregnant (I have had them in the past with no symptoms) and my OB said it shouldn't affect fertility.

Thanks for the info @PoeMasque! Very good to know. I just hope it goes away soon...I hate these things.
