A member asked:
Can yeast infection medication monistat7 still work if i apply on the outside of the vag? or do i have to shove it in?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Use suppository: Monistat will only clear the yeast infection if you "shove it in"/use the suppository to insert into the vagina. Applying it on the outside will only help with relieving the outer itchiness. If you would prefer a pill to clear your yeast infection, then call your doctor. Best wishes.
