I love everything about pregnancy! Obviously, it's why I do what I do. Except yeast infections, I don't love those. Yeast infections are no fun! Especially when you are pregnant. Itchy and irritated rashes, smelly discharge, burning and soreness are all things no pregnant woman wants to deal with. These little fungi are not only irritating but can be dangerous by increasing the risk of Premature Rupture of Membranes from infection (PROM)[1]. Candida in pregnancy should always be taken seriously. That doesn't mean, though, that it cannot be treated without prescription antifungals. In fact, the success rate in treatment with diet (with or without medication) is greater than medication alone [2]. Are You Battling Candida in Pregnancy?Yeast infections during pregnancy are much more common than you would think. Some estimate up to 75% of pregnant women have some level of yeast infection, with 30-40% needing treatment. 40% of those treated with antifungals will have a relapse and need a second dose of medication in treatment [3]. Vaginal Candida SymptomsThe severity and location of symptoms can vary significantly dependent on the woman's microbiome, and immune health. But in generals symptoms can include:
What Causes the Increase of Candida in Pregnancy?Yeast infections during pregnancy are pretty common, and can be caused by a number of different underlying conditions. Yeast play an important role in eating dead cells of the blood, skin, and mucosal layers. When there is an imbalance in the diet, bacteria, or hormones, candida can overgrow and become a problem.
Common TreatmentsIt's sad to me that most western medicine providers on not trained in dietary and nutritional therapy. They are, however, well trained in medication therapy (which is sometimes the best course of action).
Natural Supplement TreatmentCommon medication treatment runs the risk of possible interactions and birth defects. If symptoms are mild and caught early, treatment with natural supplements should be a first line defense. Even if treatment with antifungals is necessary for the prevention of childbirth and pregnancy complications such as preterm labor, these supplements can be used to increase medical treatment success and prevent relapse.
Dietary TreatmentThe goal of dietary therapy in most candida diets is to starve out the yeast by depriving it of the foods likes, such as sugars and dairy. I have another approach as well. In my Candida diet we increase the foods that have been shown have antifungal properties. Some of these foods are often left off of most other candida diet lists because they are high glycemic. In phases of pregnancy we need additional glucose to fuel fetal development so depriving the body of all carbs (even the good ones) may not be the best idea. The general guidelines of my candida diet are not just about macronutrients, but about the micronutrients and lifestyles needs during pregnancy.

My name is Cheryl Floyd. I am the happiest woman on the face of this earth. I am happy because of this man, a great spell who made my dreams come true. This is the handwork of Doctor Odunga. I contacted this man to help me save my marriage. My husband and I have been living without a child for 17 years and this has made me sort help in spells. I contacted Doctor Odunga and only him out of three spell casters did his work for me within 48 hours as he promised and I became pregnant with twins. I have been wanting to write this testimony for so long now when I became pregnant but I waited for the babies to be delivered and I am now a mother of twins, a boy and a girl. What else are you waiting for? Do you want a spell for pregnancy and solve fertility problems? Contact Doctor ODUNGA now at Email: [email protected] OR Whats App/Call +2348167159012 and he will talk to you directly.
