Can you test for vaginal infections at home while pregnant?

Most vaginal infections don’t have a home test. The only thing you can get is some ph papers to tell you if the ph is off which can sometimes indicate an infection. You can find these by the yeast infection creams, but they are expensive and not all that valuable in my opinion. I’m not sure what’s available for UTI infections other than your doctor doing a test. Cranberry juice is supposed to help, but I’m not sure it would if you already have the infection. Call your doctor’s office and speak to a nurse, maybe they can bump you up to an earlier appointment. It sounds like you should be seen sooner. Good luck.
