OBGYN,  's  Response
When you say thrush, do you mean of the mouth or the vagina? In the mouth there are oral rinses that can be prescribed by your physician. In the vagina, thrush (or a yeast infection) can be safely treated in pregnancy by both oral and topical vaginal preparations. You do not have a developing baby yet so these medications are all likely safe. Consult with your GYN on the proper choice of medication, but there are over the counter antifungal creams for the vagina that do not require a prescription.
