Should Clitoris And Labia Itching Be Treated With Boric Acid Capsules?
I am 30 weeks pregnant and my midwife gave me 3 boric acid capsules to treat a possible yeast infection. I have read that boric acid is dangerous for the unborn baby. I m not even sure I have a yeast infection. I have severe itchiness on my clitoris and upper labia, but no burning, oder, discharge. The fluid I do have is clear or white and smells perfectly normal. What should I do?

I would advice you not to use boric acid capsules and you can use clotrimazole and clindamycin suppositories alternately you can use a urinary alkalizer
