When a pregnant woman has mold, she has mycosis vaginalis, and mycosis vaginalis can have an effect on the fetus. If you have mycosis vaginalis in early pregnancy, it may cause bacterial infection upstream and a preterm miscarriage or cessation of embryonic development. If you get mycosis vaginalis in the middle or late stages of pregnancy, it can cause premature rupture of membranes and stillbirth. If mycotic vaginitis is still present during delivery, it may cause mycotic infections in the fetus’ mouth after birth, which can also have a significant impact on the pregnant woman, mainly due to congestion, edema and severe itching of the vulva and vagina. It may cause severe vaginal lacerations during delivery, which may not heal well with stitches.
