Oral medications are best avoided in pregnancy. So use 8-X shampoo as lotion to be applied or if you can get Keraglow-AD lotion (not shampoo, even that shall be good.

Ringworm infection requires both external and internal treatment .If you suspect you have the infection, see your doctor for an accurate diagnosis. It is better to be sure if it is candida or something else . you also need to be certain if there are other underlying issues causing the infection.Meanwhile you may use curitop powder and keep the area as dry as possible.

Dermatologist•Mumbai
Fungal infection tends to affect folds of the skin, moist areas like groins, armpits, mouth, genitals, under the breasts, webs between fingers and toes, etc. Our skin protects us from fungal/yeast attack, but any cut or break in the continuity of the skin can allow penetration of fungus. It gives rise to rash, eruptions, redness, burning, intolerable itching and abnormal discharges at times. Fungal infection tends to last for many years if not treated well. It is also contagious.
