Question 1

I discontinued the use of monistat 7 after 1 day. how long will it take to completely leave my body? and can i get a pap test within the next 2 days?

Accepted Answer

The problem is not the monistat. Monistat is there to cure the infection causing inflammatory responses which look like hyperactive cells and look atypical or pre cancer-like. Treat the infection first, have the inflammatory reaction cool down then get a pap smear to make sure they get your natural or normal cells.

Question 2

If you're told to get monistat- is it the cream or the applicators? and if applicators then 1 or 3 or 7? will 1 being stronger work faster?

Accepted Answer

The applicator is for vaginal insert, so get it if you have vaginal itch or discharge. If the infection is only on the outside, then the cream will be sufficient. I personally get the 7 days, even though you may only need one dose. You will have left over for the next time.

Question 3

How can i get monistat medicine cleaned out infection is gone but medicine is still in there ?

Accepted Answer

Leave it alone and don't worry about it. The natural lubricating secretions of the internal lining will flush it out.

Question 4

Should i be slightly itchy after day 3 of monistat 3 or do i need to get monistat 7?

Accepted Answer

Usually, Monistat-3 will take care of infection: if you are still itching you may need  a GYN evaluation or a dose of diflucan: please call your GYN for further evaluation

Question 5

Why cant i get all the monistat 1 (tioconazole) day out ? what is the oroper way to remove residue?

Accepted Answer

The medication is designed to absorb into the skin over several days, and of course some will come back out in your underwear. No need to remove it. It will all absorb, come back out, or wash away all on its own over about a week or two.

Question 6

If i took monistat 1, (tioconazole) do i wait the 2-3 days for it to clear or do i go back and get the monistat 3?

Accepted Answer

If you did not get better after treating your yeast infection you can try repeating the treatment. You may have something else other than a yeast infection. Scheduling a visit for testing will give you a more accurate diagnosis

Question 7

I started with my period and i have this itch that won't quit so do i get monistat 3 days or wait till my period is over which is tomorrow?

Accepted Answer

If you are not bleeding heavily you can go ahead and start the monistat. If you are bleeding heavily then wait until your period is over as the heavy bleeding would just wash out the medication. If it does not resolve with the monistat then see a doctor for an exam.

Question 8

I just used monistat 1, (tioconazole) placed the ovule in about 9am.  i went to the bathroom 2 hrs later and some of it came out. do i need to get another dose?

Accepted Answer

This is a problem with the Ovules,  You may had noticed that it's recommend that you insert it before bed when you're laying down.  Even then, it can plop out before completely dissolved if you use the bathroom.  It takes 2-3 days for the symptoms to resolve.  If you think you can wait, get another if you still have symptoms.  I DO recommend inserting it before bed in any case.  Best wishes!

Question 9

I've completed the 7 day monistat treatment and every symptom is better except i'm still having a tiny bit of itching still and the peeling which is overwhelming. when will the peeling get better?

Accepted Answer

Consider seeing your Obgyn for a follow up visit. The diagnosis can be confirmed and an exam can be done to determine if other alternative treatment is needed.

Question 10

How can i get rid of a yeast infection at home without medications or monistat meds.?

Accepted Answer

First, have a doctor confirm the diagnosis; other things can cause similar symptoms. Second, if there is an underlying condition causing yeast infections, take care of that (e.g. good control of diabetes, stop antibiotics). Otherwise, you'll need medication. There are several options other than miconazole (Monistat). Check with your doctor.
