Pregnant And Nearing Due Date, Have Discharge Without Odor, Burning Urination. If This Is Yeast Infection Will I Need C-section?
39 weeks pregnant with a possible yeast infection . I have slight burning, was checked yesterday for a uti at my normal checkup and it was fine. I called my doctor and she didn t seem to concerned because of there being no odor or bad discharge . But if this IS a yeast infection what can I use to clear it up? I am dilated 3 cm and 50% effaced. Being induced on my due date in 3 days and want to know also will I need a c-section if this is a yeast infection? I would call my doctor but it is very late and this may be me just worrying.

Hi,
Your doctor has examined you and I am sure she has ruled out a possible fungal infection.
You need not use anything to clear it up now. You are at term now and are induced into labor.
Yeast infection is not an indication for c- section.
Hope this helps. Please relax.
All the best.
Regards,
