Vaginal Itching From 2 Months
Hi, I am 24 years old and I am 37 weeks pregnant. I have vaginal itching for 2 months, I applied different creams against yeast, but no result. I even take soda bath, and it also has no effect. What should I do, and I am very anxious if it affects my baby. Thanks beforehand.

Hello
Vaginal itching is probably due to infection.It may not be safe to give you antibiotics at this late stage of pregnancy but you can use antifungal pessaries.You should see your OB for this.
