What
are the home remedies for vaginal thrush?
You can kill thrush organisms by just giving your panties an extra
scrub with unscented detergent before dropping them in the wash.
Another way of killing the thrush organisms is by boiling your panties
or soaking it in bleach for 24 hours prior to reuse to kill the
organism. Wash it with unscented soap before wearing. Thrush organisms
can also die when panties are touched with hot iron.
Observing proper vaginal hygiene can also kill the organism that causes
vaginal thrush.

Is it okay to breastfeed if you have thrush?
Yes. Breastfeeding is best for babies and does not need to be interrupted even if the mother or the baby has thrush. However, both mother and baby should be treated with anti-fungal medication for one to two weeks after the symptoms have cleared. Keep in mind that breastfeeding with thrush can be painful.
