Patient's question:
Sometimes there is pain on both sides of the lower abdomen, lower back pain, and tonight I also noticed cheesy discharge with blood streaks.Doctor's answer:
From your symptoms, it is considered that the fungal vaginal infection has recurred. During pregnancy, oral medication for such infections is not recommended, but local vaginal medication may still be possible. Since it is no longer early pregnancy, there is no need to consider the impact on the fetus. If medication is not used, the infection may worsen or spread to become a systemic infection, at which point medication would no longer be able to consider the fetus.Recommendations:
With bleeding and abdominal pain, there is a possibility of miscarriage. You should go to the hospital to see a doctor and get a routine vaginal discharge test to check if there are other infections besides the fungus. Hospitalization may be necessary if needed. This is the safest course of action for the fetus. If the doctor provides a treatment plan after the examination, follow the doctor's recommendations.
There is no method that can guarantee absolute safety for the fetus, but if left untreated, the condition may worsen, and the illness itself can definitely affect the safety of the fetus. The impact of medication is temporary, and typically, drugs with irreversible adverse effects on the fetus are not chosen. It is not recommended to follow the treatment methods provided online, as this is not a mild issue.
