worms :( sorry way tmi!
Has anyone else had these or is it just me? im so embarrassed to speak to anyone about it and ive only just plucked up the courage to write this.
They seem to be really bad of an evening and i just cant stop itching and scratching at my bumhole which then makes it worse. and when i wipe when i go to the toilet i can see them all on the paper, i was completely horrified by it all.
Is there anything that i can use which is safe? or am i going to have to go to the doctors...if i do go doctors, then will they want to see as im not sure i could bare to show them.
Thanks for reading and sorry about the details xx

Poor you! ( Please don't be embarrassed though, it's just one of those things. I think you would have to go to the doctors, although you could try asking a pharmacist- or calling NHS Direct to see what treatment you'd need, if you don't want to start off face to face, just tell them you're pregnant so they can advise you safely. I don't know if you could get treatment over the counter- maybe you can, see what NHS Direct say. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have to show a dr anything if you had to go to them, you'd just need to describe what you saw so they could tell what type of worm it is. Please do talk to someone- I know it's awkward, but you will need treatment to clear this up.
Remember, worms are v common, nothing to be ashamed of.
I hope you get it sorted v soon xx
If I were you i would pop into a chemist and ask.
They are alot more common than you think but not nice at all.
