    Stopped using the Monistat 7 after 3 days. The burning after insertion is not worth it. Worst of all, I think it's causing some vaginally bleeding, which is concerning since I am pregnant. My doctor said to use it because its safer than the pills, but I am done. I would not suggest this product.

    This was my first yeast infection and I was scared . My mother told me about monistat. I am on my second night and the itching is horrible I will say it lasts about an hour . Hopefully on my 3rd night the itching will cool down . And through out the day I feel fine just a little itching .

You will research supplements and a healthy diet and what clothes to wear...but only a handful will make changes. The rest of us will be back on here to let the newbies know that yes, it works, but yes it will almost ... Show Full Comment

The first night there was a slight burning/ itching followed by a pulsating sensation (weirdest feeling) It only lasted about an hour. The box does state itching/burning could happen after inserting the medicine due to it killing off the yeast. The next morning after showering definitely felt the itch but carri ...

Every one is different, so maybe that's why there are weird reviews about extreme itching or burning after using this product, but I'm my experience it ... Show Full Comment
