Yeast : Yeast infections are often accompanied by cottage-cheese looking discharge and intense itching. If you have those symptoms it may still be a yeast infection and you may need further treatment. If you are at all worried about any type of sexually-transmitted infection please be tested as these can cause permanent damage to the fallopian tubes. Also please be sure your pap smear is up to date. As your symptoms have persisted i advise that you have a complete gynecological evaluation. If you have pain, fever, vomiting, or discharge with color to it then you would need an emergency evaluation.

White flakes ?: The "white flakes" are probably dried yeast remnants. Monistat 7 may not clear up some yeast (fungal) vaginitis, so see your gyn physician for alternative remedies.
