Q: does treating a yeast infection with monistat 3 cause mild period cramps. i know its not my period because i just had it last week?

: There have been reports of vaginal creams causing period like cramps but the reports mention estrogen type creams. Young women do well taking diflucan by mouth if your vaginal cream causes cramps. It is usually just a one time dose. Your gynecologist can advise you further.
