Recurring yeast infection

Any mummies here experience frequent yeast infection during pregnancy? I am only at week 21 but already had it 3 times since I got pregnant. Gynae prescribed me with antifungal pessary during my last appointment, it did clear up for about a week and then it came back. The itch is bothering me a lot. Should I see a GP or visit other specialist clinic for now? My next gynae appointment is still 3 weeks away. #advicepls

You should see a Gyn (public/ private). I have frequent yeast infection till delivery. I saw both specialist and public doctors and they prescribe the same type of pessary and they both assured me that it is safe to use. So please don’t worry. I used boiling water and panty detergent to wash my panties and also change panty liner to pure cotton ones. It helped to reduce the frequency. I also used sebamed sensitive wash. Please consult your gynaecologist before using feminine wash.
