My doctor didn't really say exactly what effects it would have on the
baby but she did say that it isn't good to have any infections when
delivering because of the effects that it could have on the baby. I
have tried eating a lot of yogurt, I stopped using harsh soaps, taking
baths, I have tried almost everything, and nothing works, it just keeps
going back and forth. I only get 1 to 2 days of relief in between my
infections. It is driving me crazy. I don't know of anything else to
do and it sucks that my doctor can't even help. Are there any
specialists (other than gynocologists) that deal with stuff like this or
do I just have to keep going to different gynocologists to find one that
is actually going to try and help me out.
