A member asked:

Can monistat cause bleeding? my period ended a week ago and i'm on my 2nd to last day of monistat use, i experienced some bleeding 2 days ago, but tonight it's pretty heavy and idk what to do. should i finish the cream or just go to the er?

Monistat doesn’t cause bleeding. Even in the case of a contact dermatitis reaction (allergy or irritation) you would experience just a bit of blood when scratching. You don’t need to go to the ER, but see your PCP. You may be having a hormonal imbalance, stress, exercising too much, etc.
