| 5 | Yeast Infection | VERY mild burnig/ tingling sensation | This medicine worked very well for me. I took Monastat 1 , felt a very slight warm/tingling sensation and thats about it! My body is purging itself of all the bad discharge which feels great, its been a day and almost all my symptoms are gone- All the bad reviews on this board scared me, but I have no horro story for this product. | F | 24 | 1 days | 2/20/2008 | 5 | yeast infection | LADIES - If this is your first yeast infection, you've got to see your gyno! They take a culture and tell you whether or not its a yeast infection - other infections like vaginal bateriosis and Trichomoniasis (Trich) have VERY similar symptoms. If it is actually a yeast infection, you can then know what to look for in the future. If you take Monistat and other creams when you don't have a yeast infection you can create a resistance that will make it much harder to treat yeast infections you may have in the future! See your gyno the first time - it's painless and quick to do a culture and will save you a lot of grief. | F | 24 | 1 days | 1/8/2007 | 5 | 1st yeast infection | very mild warm, tingling feeling | I chose to take the Monistat 1 Day Ovule Treatment and would highly recommend it. Honestly, I was shocked to hear the horror stories reported. After being diagnosed with a yeast infection, I immediately purchased Monistat and used both the ovule and cream. The ovule was very easy to insert and the cream reduced my itching and burning by about 90% in about 30 seconds. Yes, I did have the ovule's cream "ooze" out after about 4 hours, but I simply used a pantyliner. I also spoke to my friend who is a nurse, and she said that she believes the product "works wonders" and has never heard of negative side effects. Clearly, everyone's body is different, but I cannot report any negative results from Monistat. | F | 24 | 1 days | 6/29/2008 | 4 | BAD yeast infection | I just did my day 3 and I started to feel more intense itching after insertion, no burning thankfully. It's been about 10 minutes past and the itching is getting a little more tolerable. Very uncomfortable at first but the symptoms of my yeast infection are gone so I'm sucking it up! 4 more nights! | F | 24 | 3 days 7 days | 9/21/2014 | 4 | yeast infection | No side effects | Last night was the first night of my treatment using Monistat 7. I had a severe itch that i could not bear but it subsided after about an hour. I woke up this morning relieved. I feel no itch or burn so far, just the occasional cream leaking out every now and then. Tonight will be my second treatment and I'm hoping it won't bw a repeat of last night. | F | 24 | 1 days 30 msg 1X day | 8/9/2010 Patient History | 4 | yeast infection | The first 4 nights were BRUTAL. I woke up in the middle of the night on the second night and literally had to rinse it off. Extremely itchy and burning, the symptoms of the medication were much worse than my yeast infection itself. HOWEVER!!! Each day was less severe, and day 6 and 7 felt totally fine. I think you just have to suffer through the first few days to really get the benefits. It does work, you just have to trust the process!!! But yes it is definitely one of the most uncomfortable things I've had to do. DO NOT BUY MONISTAT 1 OR 3!! My gyno said to never buy them... apparently they are much worse. | F | 24 | 7 days 1X day | 3/13/2022 | 3 | Yeast infection | Just started monistat 7 this is my first time having a yeast infection and decided to get this from my local pharmacy. It hurt when putting in the applicator but that's probably because my kitty was very sore. I experienced immediate tingling, itching and slight burning. I had to lay down because it got pretty intense but it stopped after 15 minutes and I feel fine. Will update my day 2-6. | F | 24 | 1 days 1X day | 2/26/2022 | 3 | Yeast infection | Intense itching! wasnt itching until i inserted the cream. Literally not one itch until the cream. Tried for 2 nights. Honestly will not be taking the product again if i have another yeast infection. Literally made me itch so bad | F | 24 | 0 days 30 | 11/27/2019 | 2 | This is my 4th day and it started to itch and burn | F | 24 | 4 days | 1/28/2014 | 5 | I had a self diagnosed yeast infect | Slightly warm sensation. That's all!!! Nothing like you all are describing | I had to leave a positive comment here.. I used Monistat 3 with the suppositories that you inserted with the applicator. I did it right before I went to bed. After hearing all the horror stories..YOU GUYS HAD ME SCARED STIFF..but I was so uncomfortable i said wth.. I felt nothing.. nothing but a lil warming sensation. So I just had to come here and express my relief.. I'll give u an update on how it goes for the 2nd, and 3rd day. | F | 23 | | 1/31/2009 | 5 | Yeast Infection | didn't have any side effects. | took monistat 7 and it stopped the yeast infection itch as soon as i applied the topical cream. relief after the first vaginal treatment. cleared up infection in 7 days. will take again if i have to. | F | 23 | 7 days 1X day | 12/11/2011 | 5 | Self-diagnosed yeast infection :-) | None | Monistat 7 WORKS. Anyone who says they were woken up by itching, burning, or swelling, and/or claim it was the side effect of Monistat 7 are WRONG; itching, burning, and swelling are all symptoms of a really bad yeast infection. Monistat 7 and all other Monistat anti-yeast-infection products help relieve the symptoms but you should not expect miracles: unless you caught the yeast infection early and started using the product, you will still experience some level of discomfort until one morning you can definitely tell that your condition has improved. The bottom line is: Monistat 7 works when you use it correctly. I have not used other brands, but I have used the Monistat 1 Day with Ovule capsule. I liked it more because it is less messy, but sometimes staking all your money (it's more expensive) and hopes on a one-time insertion treatment seems a bit risky. Other than that, I can say that I trust this brand. | F | 23 | 7 days | 7/4/2006 | 5 | Yeast Infection | Ladies don't let the negative comments keep you from trying this product! I almost did, but I am happy that I didn't! I had a really bad yeast infection to the point where I couldn't walk. I started feeling better after the fourth dose. I didn't experience any side effects as I thought I was after reading the reviews. Hopefully after the next two doses I will be 100%! | F | 23 | 7 days | 3/4/2013 | 5 | YI | Burning itching | Ive used this a couple of times and trust me the first time I ever used it I wanted to die and I kept saying why does this feel worse and why does it burn!?? So I stopped using it the next time around I tried it again and same thing but like everyone else says you HAVE TO GET THRU THE FIRST TWO OR THREE DAYS and then it will help it is torture bc it hurts and burns and itches when you start it but if you can get they the first two days just be patient wth or it helps so much!! | F | 23 | 7 days | 11/18/2019 | 4 | Yeast Infection | This was my first yeast infection ever and (right after my honeymoon). This product was recomended by my docter and my mother. The first ten minutes after I applied MON. 7 it burned and was not pleasant. I later applied a warm wash cloth and it felt a little bit better. It still is irratating but not as bad. | It worked fast and if you can bear 15 minutes of pain it is totally worthe it | F | 23 | 1 days | 1/2/2007 | 4 | yeast infection while pregnant | slight burning the first nights | After reading all the comments on this website I was really scared taking monistat 7. However I wanted to get rid of my infection asap and talking to the pharmacist he strongly recommended this product. So the first nights I gotta admit the burning and itching increased every time I applied it. Then I stopped using the so called soothing cream but still took the internal cream. The burning stopped, my sore skin healed AND I got rid of the nasty yeast infection. I'm sure, different women will experience different side effects but for me none of these horror stories became true! | F | 23 | 7 days | 2/20/2009 | 4 | 1st yeast infection | im 6 weeks and got my first YI, i didn't know what was going on, but after inserting the meds it burned and itched , hopefully this work bc i dnt have time for this! | F | 23 | 1 days 1 tubeful | 3/20/2014 | 4 | slight yeast infection | As soon as I inserted the cream (did the 3 day one) it was intense burning, itching, warmth...I was about to go crazy so I came on this site and saw similar reactions. However, I have come to the conclusion that I'm sure it's tingly because it's working and I'll see tomorrow if it isn't as bad. It REALLY sucks but I'm sure it's a wait it out thing. I also had BLEEDING which was scary to me but it could have been from when I inserted it because it's a hard plastic and I noticed some blood at the end so I could have accidentally hit the wall too hard or something. Itched more when I stand but also more leaked out so I probably should have just been laying down. | I was scratching and itching constantly thru my underwear which is pretty gross but I literally couldn't help it. I ended up dabbing the relief cream alllll over (way more than they recommended) after 30 mins of itching and this actually helped A TON!!! Even though the burning/itching seemed to be more inside, who knows. Now I feel like I'll be able to sleep. It just sucks because my yeast infection wasn't that bad and I think starting to go away on it's own but wanted to make sure it went away so it sucks that my symtoms had mostly vanished yet now they're back in full swing! the box DOES say itching, burning may occur when you first apply so this shouldn't be anything shocking. | F | 23 | 1 days | 11/11/2009 | 3 | Yeast infection 😖 | First day burns like HELL ; I mean the yeast infection itself feels like hell BUT when you add the monistat cream it's just the worse ; layed in bed all day . I payed almost 17 bucks for it so I defintely plan on finishing the rest of the 6 days | F | 23 | 7 days | 3/3/2015 | 3 | yeast build up | Burning itchy and leakage i was one to have cured bateria vaginosis. Now i gota yeast inf. Hope this product work this my first yeast inf.. but i dont have a doctor appointment until 30th so that's y i bought the monistat to use until i see a doctor | use step by step | F | 23 | 2 days 100 | 3/19/2015 |
