A not-so-fresh feeling...FEMININE ISSUES

 So, I'm curious if other women have developed more yeast infections post-op? I've never had them before a few weeks ago, and now I'm on my second one. Is it from the hormonal release? Weakened immune system because I'm recovering from surgery? I just want this to just go away. Grrrr...

it could be from all the antibiotics we were on in the hospital , I had thrush ( yeast infection in the mouth )  try some probiotics , that may help

 Oh yeah...I forgot about that. I'll just need to call my doctor in the AM to get an anti-fungal prescription. I started taking Probiotics again, and got a Monistat-1 kit, but I have noticed the white film on my tongue.

*sigh* I'm just a hot mess! LOL

Nystatin for the mouth , I never had any luck with the kit stuff for the other...it isall yucky, double and tripple the probiotics till you see your doc

 Thanks for the insight!

 In addition to what everyone else said - don't use monistat one or three day.  I know it sounds awful, but use the 7 day.  The 1 and 3 day kits are SO harsh on your sensitive tissues down there.  Just a recommendation.  Oh, and nystatin is the best!

 Have you changed soap recently? I am really sensitive to soaps, which causes infections for me.  Probiotics and greek yogurt.  My OB/GYN has also said to skip the 1 and 3 day treatments and go for the 7 day.  I also like Azo-Yeast.  

They do suck, don't they?  

 No change in soap. I've been using sensitive skin Dove for a while now, and we use all unscented detergents/fabric softeners because my husband and I both have eczema. 

Its just the weirdest thing because I've NEVER had one before a few weeks ago. Oh well...I guess it was my time. LOL

EDIT: I won't be on my next food stage until Tuesday, so no Greek yogurt til then. Ugh...

when you talk to your dr  , let them know you have the white in your mouth but have yeast infrection at the other end to, my Dr calls in pills, either for 1 or  3 days, i get relief the first day taking them, just a thinker ,,,, it is miserable but agree, it has to be allthe anitbiotics they pumped into you, that is the only time i ever get one, but sure cant remember the name of the pill!!
