Has anyones baby ever got thrush while breast feeding? What treatment did they do for you?

Question by ermellow: Has anyones baby ever got thrush while breast feeding? What treatment did they do for you?

Best answer:

Answer by AngelaYes, My daughter got thrush while breastfeeding and I got it on the breast. I actually used something called Gentian Violet. It’s a chemical that’s harmless to you and to the baby. I had to rub some of it on my breast and in the baby’s mouth. Now, beware: It will turn your breast and the baby’s mouth VERY purple. This is okay – it’s normal. But this is what the dorctor told me to do for it, and it worked after only 3 treatments. It’s an over the counter thing, but it’s hard to find in your regular drugstore. I ordered mine online and it came in 2 days. It was such a great relief and a big help. You can look it up online to find it.It usually runs anywhere from $ 5 – $ 10 for a 2 oz bottle – depending on what percent solution you get (they a have a 1% solution for $ 5 and a 2% for closer to $ 10). I used the 2%, and I’m assuming that . . . → Read More: Has anyones baby ever got thrush while breast feeding? What treatment did they do for you?

Have you ever been tested for type 2 diabetes from just having persistent thrush (and no other symptoms)?

Question by J_1978: Have you ever been tested for type 2 diabetes from just having persistent thrush (and no other symptoms)?
I have had a problem with vaginal thrush for years now and I asked 3 different doctors if it was possible I could have diabetes, but they all said it wasn’t likely and that I didn’t need a test. But I’m beginning to wonder really, so just wondering if any other ladies have had the test purely from having this problem, and if so, what was the result? I have tried everything else and it is doing my head in.

Best answer:

Answer by sokoklYes, chronic yeast infection can be a symptom of Diabetes (not just Type 2). Because the other doctors don’t feel you need the test I would recommend getting another opinion and preferably from someone that does not share the same office of the doctors you have already seen.

Does the Candida diet ever get easier?

Question by Jess: Does the Candida diet ever get easier?
So far I’ve only been able to stay on a very strict candida diet of meat and low carb vegetables for ten days. The cravings were horrible and I felt very anxious and angry the whole time I was on the diet, but all of my candida symptoms including the brain fog were going away. I really want to stay on the diet because I think it is the only way to get rid of candida. I’ve had candida for about 4 years and was advised to stay on the diet for four months. Does this diet ever get easier or will I just have to suffer for four months?

Best answer:

Answer by namairb2Why not just take an anti-fungal medication and be done and over with it in 10 days instead of 4 months? I’m surprised the doctor didn’t tell you about this, instead of letting you stay on this diet. After this I might consider changing doctors, unless there’s some reason you can’t take it. At the very least please get a second opinion. Good luck and God Bless

Who has ever been on the Candida Diet?

Question by KG: Who has ever been on the Candida Diet?
Have any of you ever been on the Candida Diet? If so did you loose weight? I am not on this diet to loose weight. I actually do not need to loose weight, but was told I may loose 10 – 20 pounds in the next three months I am on this diet.

How healthy is this diet?

The Candida Diet is nothing like the Atkins Diet, South Beach Diet, Weight Watchers, or any of that. This diet consists of you NOT eating any carbs, sugars (that means no alcohol, fruits, any pre-made foods, condiments, etc.), diary (unless it is plain low-fat yogurt…YUCK), and excess fat. I feel as if all I will be eating are greens and lemon juice with water for 3 months.

I was also told that I may get depressed and feel overwhelmed!

Any ideas?

Best answer:

Answer by uzurhead3 years ago I started a Candida diet and it was the best eating I could have ever started! It is very difficult at first because your body wants the carbs so bad. (Carbs turn into sugar in the body and its a quick way for your body to get energy). Thats where . . . → Read More: Who has ever been on the Candida Diet?

Question by danciingstar: Can you ever eat normally after you do the candida diet?
I am on the Candida diet, I am wondering if I am ever going to be able to eat normal again?

Best answer:

Answer by Kathryn Lyes you can but try to slowly work your way up to what you consider a “normal” diet so that you can pinpoint exactly what caused the infection and avoid that particular food.

is it possible to have a build up of yeast in your body, without ever experiencing a vaginal yeast infection?

Question by psychgirl21: is it possible to have a build up of yeast in your body, without ever experiencing a vaginal yeast infection?
i think i may have a build up of yeast inside my body. i have a lot of the symptoms such as memory loss, fatigue, dry skin, mood changes, allergies, & at times i can even taste yeast when i swallow or blow my nose. i’m just wondering if it’s possible to have a yeast build up in my body, yet never experience a vaginal yeast infection. i just figured if i do have a yeast build up, it would have affected me vaginally by now, but it hasn’t.
