It may...: And there are effective topical (local) therapies which would pose no issue relative to pregnancy.

It may not: I understand your reluctance to take meds during your pregnancy. It probably won't go away on its own. You can use otc creams, such as nystatin, to try to clear it up. You may also want to increase your consumption of yogurt and probiotics.
