A member asked:

First time yeast infection question. any other suggestions besides monistat?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a doctor: There are many other treatments. If you're not better with monistat, then your doctor needs to determine for sure if you have a yeast infection, and if you do can offer you more broad-spectrum treatment like gynazole.
