I’m currently 30 weeks pregnant and have what I suspected was thrush for what seems like months. My midwife took a swab a few weeks ago and said there was a slight infection and gave me an unbranded “canestan” pessary for 3 nights which did certainly help pretty much straight away for a little while.
All symptoms had returned and my GP (over the online triage form) has now prescribed a weeks course or canestan pessaries. First one last night, and this morning I feel even more uncomfortable if anything, still sore, irritated and a little swollen.
Has anyone had anything similar? Please tell me canestan will kick in v soon!? Anything anyone else can recommend to soothe a little. I’ve swapped to 100% cotton underwear etc already.
