| 1 | Yeast infection | Intense burning and itching immediately after application | F | 33 | 1 days | 10/17/2015 | 5 | Yeast infection | Slight bleeding, no burn, still a little itch but is relieved with itch cream | Worked like a charm. No burning at all. | F | 16 | 3 days | 10/3/2015 | 3 | YI | I finished taking my 3 day monistat two days ago and I have still been using the cream. Unfortunately I still have itching and discomfort down there so it is hard to tell if it actually worked or not. I also now how weird blood clot looking thing coming out when I use the restroom now almost as though I am on my period. The pain was bad the first night I definitely recommend a sleeping pill overall I feel better but am curious as to why I am still uncomfortable. I think next time I would rather just pay for the doctors visit and the pill cause now I'm still going to go in anyways. | F | 24 | 3 days | 8/18/2015 | 1 | Yeast Infection after antibiotics | Worst burning I have ever experienced. Even after washing it off the outside it still burned. Had to soak in an Aveno bath and used some feminine cream to help the itching and burning. Not using day 2 or 3. | F | 51 | 3 days | 8/15/2015 | 1 | Yeast infection | Intensified Burning after insertion and SEVERE itching. I have used the 1 day dose before but first time with this 3 day dosage. Never again this itching was so bad and lasted to long. | Most awful experience ever. | F | 44 | 3 days | 8/4/2015 | 3 | yeast infection | Oh man, this is the first day after using the first tube and it burns like you wouldn't believe. I'm applying neosporin to the swollen skin around the area and taking ibuprofen to reduce swelling and pain. Seriously hoping the second night gets better. This is the first yeast infection I've had, and it's because of taking antibiotics after getting strep throat. So the past week or so has been a lot of fun. Good to know that I'm not the only one suffering from the burning hell caused by treating a yeast infection. | F | 31 | 3 days | 7/20/2015 | 3 | YI | 1st day) To be honest, I had no clue what to expect since this was my first yeast infection and it was already hurting for a week so when the doctor said that this product would clear it up face I could let wait to try it. BE WARNED this product is different for different people. for me I took a shower then inserted the ovule egg then I use the cream. wrong order. once u put the egg in your done stay down. if it's your first night stay down and take a sleeping pill because you do not want to be conscious for the slow killing of your fungus in a very sensitive area. you think the yeast infection itch and pain was bad well you haven't felt anything yet. 2nd day) The pain is bearable still hard to walk but bearable. I used the itch cream in the morning after washing the white junk from the egg thingy(don't worry it suppose to happen) and for me the itch cream increases the itch so I really wonder if it was good. Used the itch cream again at night then inserted the ovule egg. I took a drowsy medicine to sleep so I'm not sure if it still hurt on the second night 3rd day) During the day, I am contemplating | F | 17 | 3 days | 6/18/2015 | 4 | yi | itchy painful | 20 minutes after application itchy and burning sensation so bad, but relief after day 1 finally.. | F | 36 | 1 days 30mg | 6/13/2015 | 1 | yeast infection | swollen vulva; burning, ulcerations | immediately after applying the monistat I felt horrible burning pain. My vulva became very red and swollen and eventually had multiple ulcerations all over it. My doctor actually thought I had herpes. The doctors office did a herpes culture, which the office then somehow lost. So I had to go back 8 days later to get the blood work after being treated with valtrex. I was negative for herpes simplex 2. My blood showed that I was a carrier of the simplex 1 virus which is commonly associated with oral fever blisters but as 80% of the population carries that virus she can't say if that is what caused the problem. I know that I have been married for 15 years, I've never had any issues before and I definitely had a yeast infection. I instantly had a reaction to the monistat that burned like fire. I've read online that many others have had the same reaction. | F | 36 | 3 days 1X day | 6/11/2015 | 2 | yeast infection | First day fine.Second day pain and burning for 30 minutes almost equivalent to childbirth. Third day was not as painful as 2nd. But did 3rd day to complete treatment. I'm wondering if there was a change in the ingredients. I'm very surprised of the disappointing reaction to product. | F | 47 | 3 days 200 mg | 5/24/2015 | 3 | Yeast infection | I got the complete therapy and i used the ovules that worked great but DO NOT USED the cream. It burns too much. I went and bought a different one that numbed my skin and made the itch go away | F | 17 | 3 days | 5/12/2015 | 3 | Yeast infection | The external cream burns like hell... I had forgotten about that :-/. I inserted the ovule during the day because I wanted to zap the yeast ASAP... it grows very fast. if you go this route, be prepared for a mess, regardless of the package claims of "Less Mess Ovules for Anytime Use." Stinging, itching, general discomfort.... basically you just have to tough it out with this stuff. I am surprised that the formulation has not been improved but hey, at least you can get it OTC. There was a time when you had to suffer until you could get to the dr and get an Rx. If you've ever had to wait several days to get a YI treated, you know what I mean by MISERY. So count yourselves lucky, ladies. Believe it or not, it could be worse! | And Bruce Jenner WANTS to be a woman? Wait 'til he gets his first yeast infection in his new va-jay-jay. He'll want his weenie back. | F | 51 | 2 days 200mg 1X day | 4/25/2015 | 4 | yeast infection | It's me again. This is my 3rd day using this product monistat 3. Once I woke up in the morning I would shower and put the shower wash for my vagina called summer eves wash. After I showered I would put in the last egg tube thing in me, I also applied the external cream where it was irritated. I feel a little better than before honestly...right now I just applied the external cream before bed. I still have my period though. I know it's a bit hard to get healed because of it. I'm almost done with the medication. I'm done with using the eggs but not with the cream I'm going to use it until my 7th day. So far it's my 3rd. I'm going to apply the external cream twice a day. Once in the morning and before bed. Of course I have to clean myself before I apply it. I've also been drinking 2 bottles of water with food. I still feel a light tingle and light burn on my irritation. But I feel alot better forsure! I'm still going to update you all about this product like how it would go for me on my last day, my 7th day. | So far it's working great. It burns but of course that means it's doing its magic. Just hang in there and drink water with food. Finish the egg tubes. Use the external cream twice a day, where you feel irritated. I'll keep you updated. | F | 24 | 3 days | 4/13/2015 | 3 | yeast infection | This is my second day trying out the product. Yesterday, before I went to bed I put on the cream only because it says twice a day so the 1time I put it in the morning with the tube thing. Anyway, this is my 2nd day. just right now I put the tube cream in me and then I put the external cream where it was getting irritation. So far, im not feeling the way I felt in day 1. Day 1 was the worst, it burnt me and I felt like puking. I took it like a woman though and drank water alot. Of course you're going to feel a burning sensation because it's infected.... You need to treat it soon before it gets worse. I think I got the yeast infection in the hot tub. Day 2 for me is a little better not as much stinging but still is in the process. I didn't feel like puking this time. I layed down as soon as I used the medicine. Don't forget to put a pad on the cream comes out. I hope this goes away soon.... I'll update you on day 3, tomorrow. | No comments | F | 24 | 2 days | 4/11/2015 | 2 | yeast infection | I tried it an hour ago and it stinged me so bad! Right now I feel a light burning sensation. But 20min after I put it on I felt dizzy and I felt like puking so I got close to the toilet and stayed there until I puked but I didn't puke and that feeling lasted about 5min. Then I got a bottle of water and put it beside my bed. Now I'm laying down writing my review on this product. I hope this product helps me. Btw I'm on my period too.... | No | F | 24 | 1 days | 4/10/2015 | 2 | I took Monistat 3 to cure my yeast | Intense burning, irritation, itchy. | I will never take this product again!!! | F | 40 | 3 days | 3/26/2015 | 5 | Yeast infection | This is my first yeast infection due to taking antibiotics for a sinus infection. It was a pretty mild yeast infection. I called the nurse line and she stated they recommend trying monistat before being seen by a doctor with the mild symptoms I had. She said to try the 1 or 3 day monistat. I selected the 3 day due to all the bad reviews of the one day version. I was terrified to try this due to all the negative reviews. Unlike many people, I did not experience any itching or burning upon insertion. There was a very slight tingly feeling about 15 minutes after I inserted the ovule, but nothing painful. I had very mild cramping the morning after, like menstral cramps but they only lasted about 15-30 minutes. I am very happy I tried this and will use it again in the future if needed. | I've noticed many of the negative reviews used the cream version, not the ovule eggs. I used the less-mess ovule and have not had any problems and my symptoms are much better after just one day. Also, Vagisil anti-itch cream burned badly, but the cream that came with Monistat worked great with no burning sensation. | F | 30 | 3 days X3 | 3/19/2015 | 3 | Yeast Infection | I'm 34 this is my first Yeast Infection. I was taking an antibiotic for a sinus infection and it caused this. I am trying the Monistat 3. Initially after insertion the burning and itching was absolutely awful. This is coming from someone who has a pretty decent threshold for pain. It's been about 4 hours and I am still experiencing some discomfort. I'll update later. | F | 34 | 1 days | 2/27/2015 | 5 | Yeast infection | I had absolutely no side effects. No burning nothing. I would use again. Love it. Big relief. I tried the 1day dose did not work. Used the 3 day worked well. | F | 44 | 3 days | 2/19/2015 | 4 | yeast infection | Other than an initial burning after inserting the suppository, I haven't experienced any side effects other than relief. The burning sensation last about 15 min then it goes away. It's not as unbearable as ppl are saying. The itchiness went away within a day and the cottage cheese discharge I had went away. Now I'm jus continuing the other dosage to be sure it clears up completely. | You can't always listen to bad reviews on the internet. Everybody bodies react differently and will have different side effects | F | 24 | 3 days | 2/3/2015 |
