I've decided to write a review since there are a lot of neg ones. I'll be honest, when I first took this I didn't have the most pleasant experience and reading some reviews freaked me out. Here's my history -- I was diagnosed with yeast infection last year by my obgyn of which she prescribed a one day oral medicine. It took a few days for it to work, but I don't recall having any side effect...
I wish I had read the comments before purchasing this. What started out as a slight itch turned into a monster after using this product. I used this at about 10pm right before I went to bed. By a little after 12am I woke up to a whitish discharge so a pad is a must but that wasn't all. I was Itching and burning so bad I almost cried. I went to the bathroom and rinse off with water several times an...

Used as a quick fix without any research. The burning sensation began at around the two hour mark, but was bearable. However, the amount of swelling this has caused is absolutely horrifying.

I read the reviews before taking it. I took it last night before I went to bed. Slept like a baby. I even woke up snoring. Has some itching in the am, jumped in the shower and afterwards put the itch cream on. Itâ??s 5 pm and I feel great. Idk why it burned other people. But I really like it. It was easy.

I got this as a quick relief to a yeast infection and u couldn’t have made a more horrific decision. The itching definitely stopped, but all the other pain continued. It got to a point I had problems walking and sitting. Every inch of my vagina was swollen TRIPLING in size. The most I could do was take Benadryl to TRY to calm down the swelling.

This is literally my first time EVER writing a review. I literally came on here to save a lady from being in pain like this. I literally want to cry right now I'm in extreme pain. I applied Monistat 1 about 30min ago and omg!!!!im burning and itching like never before! I've never felt my vagina in this much pain. It literally feels like my vagina has been cut and filled with hot sauce. Please don't try this I'm literally calling my healthcare to get advise on how to ease this pain.

DO NOT USE!!! I wish I would have read the reviews before using this product. I inserted the ovule egg around 11pm and at 1:30am I woke up to intense burning and itching and could not get it to stop!!! It was burning so bad! Do not use this! Find something else with better reviews.

This product is literally the worst thing ever. I would only tell someone to do this if I hated them. It caused more problems and did not bring any satisfaction in curing a yeast infection whatsoever. If you choose to use this. Just donâ??t. Iâ??m begging you. Itâ??s not worth it at all. Just go to the doctor and get a pill.

After inserting the egg, I started reading reviews and I got very worried about what I was getting myself into and wondering if I should attempt taking it out... I decided to just let it do itâ??s thing because my YI was the worst itâ??s ever been. I put it in right before I went to sleep and it was very easy to insert. I was waiting for that intense itching and burning feeling that everyone was talking about in other reviews but I never experienced that pain. If you have a bad YI I would recommend this medicine. I read in some reviews that some people experienced those side effects if their problem is not a yeast infection. So make sure you are 100% positive that it is a yeast infection and hopefully you will have the same experience as I did! I know several people that have used this medicine and didnâ??t have any problem with it! Good luck!!! Read More Read Less

DO NOT PUT THIS IN YOU!! Please do your vagina a favor and not insert this into you. I have woken up out of a dead sleep crying because of the amount of discomfort and burning I have been experiencing.

Don't do it!!! I didn't read the reviews first and boy was I sorry. Burning so much worse than the yeast infection! Hardly slept all night. Couldn't get in bathtub fast enough. Just add baking soda and apple cider vinegar to your tub instead. Can't believe any woman would approve this medication.

I didnâ??t have enough money to go to a doctors appointment so I self diagnosed myself based on the fact that there was no way I had an STD and I had itching and pain during sex (same partner for 4 years). I went to H-E-B and bought this Monistat for 1 day because I was so uncomfortable and I wanted relief as fast as I could get it. I bought it before work and saw that it was recommended to take at bedtime but I went ahead and took it at 9 am because I didnâ??t want to wait 12 hours. I inserted it and everything was fine until 5 minutes after I felt severe itching like I have never felt before. Keep in mind I had sex the day before so my vagina was extremely sensitive since I had caused a rash. The intense itching lasted 1 hr and 30 min. My vagina still was hurting but I donâ??t know if it was from the sex the day before or the drug. Either way I started to feel relief that same night. Even though it caused severe itching, it saved me a doctors visit and saved me $200 (I donâ??t have insurance). P.S: donâ??t have sex with a yeast infection (i put the pain aside during sex because I wanted to have sex but it was not worth it after). Yes my partner knew I had it but we were in the moment. Oh and Iâ??m 18 â?? wondering if thatâ??s too young to have a yeast infection.Read More Read Less

I took a shower made sure my vagina was clean. Application is very easy to use. Soon as I insert the medication there was this instant itch like not just a regular itch were you can tolerate it. Iâ??m talking about itch times ten I was losing my mind oh yeah letâ??s not forget the burn that came after that, oh was the itch still there hell yeah it was smh. I quickly went to the bathroom to push the product out ran some water hoping that it will make it better and it did but not for long. My current Situation I have a slight burn but no itch. Please ladies see a provider on this matter. Read More Read Less

Worst ever. 5 days later & my vag is still in itching burning hell. Hurts so bad it’s hard to act like it doesn’t. Can’t get much sleep. I just hope the yeast infection is gone by the 7 day mark... wouldn’t recommend to anyone. I think this product should be discounted. That’s how bad it hurts... the swelling... the itching.... I rather be a man

I just used this and it burns like crazy. Luckily I had some Azo urinary tract pain pills which I took immediately and it should take the pain away. Iâ??m not sure if this is going to work ultimately but the burning was very severe right after insertion.

Itâ??s midnight. Letâ??s go back to 9pm if you will. I was amazed with how easy the application process was with this product. My son and husband are both asleep. Iâ??m getting ready to climb into bed when my vaginal canal starts burning. I mean BURNING. I go to the bathtub and canâ??t pee and squeeze the product out fast enough. The house is completely silent except for my frantic and desperate cries as I try to take this product out. At this point Iâ??ve remade Adele's song to â??my vag is on fireeeeeeeeee.â? It hurts so bad. I donâ??t know what to do. Iâ??ve never hated being a woman until now. Do not buy this product. Read More Read Less

I really wish i had read these reviews before I purchased this product. The burning and itching is far worse than if I had done nothing. I will be calling my doctor ASAP. I seldom buy anything like this OTC. Won’t be doing that again!!
