What Causes Whitish Vaginal Discharge During Pregnancy?

Hello, I am pregnant and I have this flaky discharge that is kind of dry and also white discharge with it too. I m concerned it might be thrush but unsure. My vagina feel sore when I ve had sex and is itchy too. Is there anything I can do to get rid of it? And will my baby get it? My breasts too have darked from my underarms towards my areoles and making me concerned as its nearly as dark as my areoles and they are quite dark as I am indian. Is this normal

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion white discharge associated with itching and sore vagina mostly suggest vaginal infection.It might be candidiasis which is routinely seen in pregnancy.Consult doctor as you might need local antifungal therapy.It will not harm the fetus.Regarding the discoloration of skin in axilla and breasts it might be the hormonal effect.Dont worry it will become normal after delivery within 6 months.
Best regards..Dr.srilatha
