A yeast infection in the vagina is characterized by thick, vaginal discharge appearing like cottage cheese. Women will also experience pain and discomfort during sexual intercourse.

Yeast infection during pregnancy

Women who are expecting a child and are pregnant may go through a lot of emotional stress which in turn may lower your immune system and increase the risk of Candida overgrowth.  Also pregnant women have cravings for sugar rich foods and they are allowed to fulfill their cravings. Thus the sugary environment increases the risk of yeast infection.

Also during pregnancy a woman undergoes many physical, physiological and hormonal changes in her body. Thus the normal bacterial count in the vagina is disturbed again leading to Candida overgrowth. A yeast infection is most common in the second trimester of pregnancy.
