What Causes Severe Vaginal Itching During 10 Weeks Of Pregnancy?

I m 10 weeks pregnant and facing severe vaginal itching outside and it seems to be travelling up through the urinary tract. I scratched real bad once and it only got worse. My doc has given me some oral antibiotics and T bact ointment. But, when I applied this ointment it didn t seem very helpful. Is t bact meant to heal vahinal itching?

Itching in and around vagina is due to fungal infection.It is common to get fungal infections during pregnancy. Bact cream is for infection only, is not usefull in itching. If i have to treat such a patient i will advice miconazole vaginal tabs to be inserted before going to bed and to apply miconazole cream in and around vagina
