For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I’ve had a yeast infection before and used Monistat 3 and had no negative symptoms. However, I figured I’d use Monistat 1 because it would work faster (at least I thought). The Thursday night I inserted the medication, I felt tingling and itching immediately. I figured it was just the medicine doing its job. All night I tossed and turned from being so uncomfortable. The next morning, I woke up in excruciating pain and discomfort. I felt like I inserted icy-hot into my vagina. It was difficult to even walk. I was hoping this torture would only last one day, but the itchiness and burning lasted around 4 days for me. Every day of showering, I’d attempt to wash out as much of the medication as I was able to without hurting myself more. And yes, just touching the skin was painful, I had almost thought I had a chemical burn. Please DO NOT buy Monistat 1!!!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This was rough. Intense internal and external burning, itching, stinging, along with external swelling and discomfort. This lasted for about 4-5 hours, the first hour being the most intense by far. While these side effects persisted, I was not able to function or even walk. I can usually deal with pain and discomfort relatively well (I felt basically fine after giving birth twice), but this was debilitating. After reading other reviews, it seems that this is pretty common. While some people do not experience the intense burning that I did, I would not take the risk. I thought this would be faster and easier than getting a prescription and would provide some relief. Nope, awful, awful experience. Absolutely would never take this again under any circumstances."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This was my first experience using Monistat 1, and this thing is a miracle. I see a lot of women saying it burned and caused irritation. Maybe the severity of the irritation really depends on how bad your yeast infection is. Don't worry too much about it and take some pain relievers! Taking some drugs with Monistat will seriously help the burning and ease some itching. I took it around 8 pm and slept through the whole night. The next morning, I experienced a little discomfort, but nothing unbearable. I am feeling much better, and the itching is gone! Definitely use this before your yeast infection gets too bad. Good luck, ladies."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "The absolute worst thing ever! Used it while at work, and after an hour, I almost collapsed from the discomfort. I was sweating cold and was extremely itchy. Had to come home crying because it was so, so bad."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I’m currently lying in bed after inserting this acid egg inside of my vagina. It feels like there is a cactus growing inside of me covered with fire ants and poison ivy."
