Message: <blockquote data-quote="DebbieJB" data-source="post: 2741866" data-attributes="member: 528539">Hi I took Forxiga with no issue in my 30's which was stopped when I became pregnant. I took it again in my 40's and had constant thrush. A locum Dr told me to wash more and made me feel like it was something I was doing wrong but my husband who likes to home brew pointed out that sugar and yeast are always going to create this issue! I'm perimenopausal now which also impacts how my body reacts and I'm more sensitive so will not be continuing with Forxiga. I did go back to my Dr and tell them their advice was distressing and challenged them to consider diabetes treatment for perimenopausal women with more sensitivity! Also our bodies have a natural balance which means excessive washing would increase experience of thrush!</blockquote>
