Thrush (Candida) Thrush affects about one in three pregnant women, a common
pregnancy ailment, that is caused by the growth of fungus. Why
pregnant women are susceptible to this problem, isn't quite known,
but it is thought to be due to the changes in the pH of the vagina.
Thrush starts with the vagina feeling itchy and tender and there may
be a burning sensation upon urinating. There may be a thick, white
vaginal discharge, and the vagina tends to become swollen, red and
painful. Although it is not necessarily a sexually transmitted
disease, it can be passed on during intercourse, with your partner
experiencing redness and pain at the tip of his penis and under his
foreskin. Therefore is it wise for both of you to seek treatment,
even if only the woman is affected.

- Vaginal thrush responds very well to natural treatments. Try
eliminating all sugars, refined starches, tea, coffee and alcohol
from your diet, and aim for a healthier option, with plenty of fresh
fruit and vegetables.
- Applying nappy rash cream around the vulva may ease the discomfort.
- Shower rather than bath, and wash with an unscented soap.
- Live, natural yoghurt or frequent salt washes are also recommended.
