| 5 | YI | None. | The only somewhat unpleasant experience was during the insertion of the applicator..it was slight irritation but only lasted a few seconds.Overall a very convenient and effective product. | F | 23 | 3 days 1X day | 5/12/2012 | 5 | YI | No negative side effects | F | 19 | 3 days 1x Day | 5/23/2012 | 5 | Yeast infection | RELIEF!!

I read a lot of reviews saying that it burns once you insert the application. Which wasn't the case for me it didn't burn it wasn't messy it works amazingly. P.s my doctor stated that if it burns then you most of had your infection for a while. I would recommend this product.. | M | 25 | 3 days | 10/18/2012 | 5 | Yeast infection | Ok let me say this, I take the monistat 1 first, when I put the ovule in I was really dry but still felt a little burning for about 3mins but not to bad, I was waiting for the drainage but it didn't seem to come, it really didn't work for me so I went back an got monistat 3, it really works so fast but it burns like hell. I had to stop what I was doing to get that stuff off me when it leaks because it really burns in irritate the skin like crazy when it drain itself out.. Good luck ladies | F | 25 | 3 days 200mg | 1/17/2013 | 5 | yeast infection | First off there weren't any side effects that weren't already problems before I took the ovule. My poor area was so swollen so I had some difficulty inserting it but I feel fine. No itching or burning, etc. Within two hours I'm already noticing the pain going away. | F | 24 | 3 days | 2/6/2013 | 5 | yeast infection | I have used the monistat 3 a few times has always worked great. Never did experience the burning others described. Although this is my 3rd day and its the first time I have ever experienced nausea with Monistat. | F | 21 | 3 days 3x200mgs | 3/10/2013 | 5 | Yeast Infection | none | My first yeast infection, the walk in clinic doctor prescribed to me Monistat7 and was cured from it. For my second yeast infection (2 years after my first) I bought monistat 3 because I didn't want to be on the meds for a week. It cured me just fine. I don't see how other women are in such pain, but then again each women have different bodies. I recommend this product to any woman with a yeast infection...YOU WILL BE FINE, don't listen to the other women...just suck it up | F | 20 | 3 days | 2/26/2007 | 5 | Yeast Infection (antibiotics) | With the first application of the cream, there was a burning sensation, which I see a lot of people have experienced. However, the skin down there is broken, so helloooo, of course it's going to burn! After the first application, I went to sleep. Once I woke up, there was no more burning, itching, or irritation whatsoever. I even put some of the cream on just in case...but that didn't burn the second time. Ladies, please do not be so dramatic and scare people away from a product that works! | F | 21 | 3 days | 11/3/2008 | 5 | yeast infection | It was itchy and burned a little at first but I had taken some tylenol PM and fell right asleep. I was itchy and burning before I took it too...I woke up and had no more sympotoms and in 3 days my infection was gone. | F | 33 | 3 days | 3/9/2007 | 5 | yeast infection | i never had any problems with this medication at all. | cured my yeast infection in three days. no itching, burning, etc. i had no problems whatsoever! | F | 20 | 3 days | 9/29/2006 | 5 | yeast infection | slight burning and that is normal. | I dont understand what these woman are talking about!! this site scared the crap out of me when I first used the product. I used the product the first day and I felt nothing and went right to sleep but when I woke up It was burning because it was leaking out. Then I went to this site to see if burning was normal and these woman are saying it was so bad but it was a light burning nothing I could not handle, but after reading this I was scared to use it again, but I did because I wanted to get rid of this thing. The second night i used it I felt slight burning when i laid down for awhile but nothing wh en I woke up I took a nice shower and went on about my bis the third night I felt alittle more burning but nothing serious I went right to sleep, I woke up and it was alittle burning took a nice shower and went on with my day, not a big deal at all. I do believe my yeast infection is gone but if not I will take a diflican if the symptoms come back. Ladies my advice would be to not look at | F | 22 | 3 days | 3/23/2007 | 5 | I had a yeast infection | Burning and Itching | When I first took the medicine, i was burning and itching like crazy the morning after. i thought something was wrong so i called the 800 number and they let me know thats the medication working. So i took it for the second day and it was not much itchng, nor for the third day and now its been about 5 days and i am completely cured. The itching and burning was bad but the results are worth it. Trust me, i would recommend this to anyone so long as you know the HORRIBLE itching and burning is okay lol. Just be prepared. any questions you can email me id be glad to help. I'm very satisfied. | F | 19 | 3 days | 7/23/2008 | 5 | yeast infection | mild itching right after the first application | This product worked great for me. after one day i felt relief. make sure you wear a pad during treatment because it will leak a little and use it at bed time to prevent leaking. i am very satisfied with this product | F | 21 | 3 days | 11/19/2007 | 5 | Bad Yeast Infection | None besides the slight burning which is normal and quite common, from what I've heard. | I honestly searched up this YI Med before using it and came across this website with all these negative comments towards the med... thankfully I did not freak out, instead I tried it myself and by the first dosage, the irritation/symptoms of a yeast infection went away! I was so relieved because it was horrible... I'm finally done all 3, and extremely satisfied with the results, it's unfortunate that some women did not have any good results because it worked great on me. Didn't have to wait at the doctors office to notify him and get a prescription, than waste double the money for antibiotics. This med is awesome, I'd recommend it to any female with a bad yeast infection since my experience was great...nothing negative at all. | F | 23 | 3 days | 3/28/2008 | 5 | yeast infection | mild itching, just a little burning (normal) | I would like for those that used this product and had a horrible reaction to it to understand that there are ppl out there that are allergic to this product. And just because it didnt work for you doesnt mean it wont work for others. If you had read the instructions well it told u to cunsult a doc before using. For the mos part this product is still being sold because it works!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was a first time user and i was very satified. At first was scared to use it because of some comments that were left but consulting my doc and using monistat 3 i was relieved both mentally and physically. | F | 23 | 3 days | 11/9/2008 | 5 | mild yeast infection | none, very mild burning the first night | This is my first experiance with yeast infection.I was scared to death reading the experiences of other women for monistat3. I called my dr and begged her to prescribe me the oral medicine, she explained me how this medicine would just deal with the area effected and it is not a good idea to take a medicine orally and get all kinds of harmful chemicals in my blood stream specially when it is not required. I had no choice and i was sobbing badly before trying it as i thought it would hurt. But to my amazement I was totally fine. A very mild burning was there the 1st night and even in morning. My itching was completely gone. Today is my 2nd night and no burning or itching. I think people who had bad experience were maybe allergic to medicine or had a pretty bad infection. Also, maybe they had scratched themselves too much and that caused more burning when medicine was applied. Best of luck and yes please don't be scared. NOT EVERYONE HAS HAD A BAD EXPERIANCE. | F | 31 | 3 days | 2/2/2009 | 5 | Yeast Infection | Mild burning from the vulva cream. | I was on antibiotics for a UTI and soon after I had all the symptoms of a yeast infection. I went and bought the Monistat 3 (ovule form) and read about it on here before I took it. What everyone was saying scared me, but I knew I had to take it. From what it seems, the generic brand of Monistat 3 seems to create a burning and itching sensation more than the actual version. I suggest inserting it as far up as possible for best results and wearing a panty liner or small pad for leakage. People commented on how the cream that comes with it burns and itches horribly. Most woman are putting the cream on broken skin so of course it is going to sting a bit. I only put a little bit on and it barely stung. | F | 18 | 3 days | 2/12/2009 | 5 | The last time, Monistat 1 | Ladies, there is another itching problem that happens to us women and that is trichomonas. If Monistat doesn't heip you, ask your doctor to recheck you for that. Believe me, I'm 76, and I've probably had both of these infections more times than you are old. They are a plague for women. I've had to take a lot of antibiotics over the years and each time I end up with the yeast infection. In fact, I am going to have to get some Monistat this week because I am on amoxicillin right now. God bless all of you and get well soon. | Monistat 3 worked for me without any reactions. | F | 76 | 3 days | 7/14/2009 |
