I have a very, very minor yeast infection that I need to treat before next week (it is Saturday) as I am planning to have sex for the first time then. I purchased the 3 day Monistat system because it was the only one available at the store and was wondering if I could take two of the doses in the same day to make it go away faster? Or, because the infection is minor, can I stop after one dose? I checked the packaging and Monistat website and was unable to find answers to these questions. Your help is appreciated!
**Also, how long after using Monistat do you have to wait before having sex? Thanks again.**
Can I use 2 doses of Monistat 3 in the same day? Do I need to use every dose?

I would only use as directed
Use the medication the way its directed and get rid of the infection, don't make up your own schedule. The manufacturer has made this form to work in 3 daily doses. If you wanted to do only one dose you should have bought the form that was only 1 dose.
What are you using for birth control?
