- Stinging sensation during sex or when you use the toilet.
When treated properly, thrush can clear up within a week and will not occur often. However, some women may find that they get thrush regularly, sometimes more than twice in six months. Thrush can be caused by a number of different factors, including hormonal changes from pregnancy, as well as wearing tight clothing or using certain types of soap.
