For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I am 6 months pregnant and got a YI. I'm allergic to the other creams, so I was very nervous about trying this, but I'm so glad that I did. I almost had relief from the severe itching right away. I would give it a 10/10, but it did cause some cramping in my lower abdomen and lower back. That is the only negative about it for me. On day 2, and I'm feeling better already!!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I had a severe lingering yeast infection (first ever at 26!) that 3 doses of fluconazole couldn't wipe out. My doc prescribed me a 7-night treatment of terconazole because she thought a more direct medication might help. The 1st night was a nightmare to get the applicator in - there's no closed off, rounded end like a tampon, so you can't really just push it in, and my vaginal opening was already swollen and sore. As the infection got better, it was easier to insert. I did experience side effects of mild cramping, stomachaches, gassiness, and sensitivity to smell. Food smells would give me nausea and headaches at the same time. The effects of the cream weren't as immediate as the pills, so I wasn't sure if it was working at first but kept going as instructed. I just finished my 7th dose last night, and the infection seems to be gone. I feel pretty normal again. Very relieved that this worked for me and even more relieved to be done with it."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I am 37 weeks pregnant and suffered yeast infections throughout the pregnancy. I used Monistat 7 and would experience burning and itching less than an hour after use. My doctor prescribed me this medication. Finally!!!!! Relief!!!! No burning, no itching, only a slight cramp which I could deal with. Today is day one. Use it before sleep, not while your day is going by. I'm feeling so much better in such a short period of time. Seems like some people experienced some side effects which I hope I don't. So far, so good."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I’m using terconazole in the 3-day dosage form. Immediately felt cramping and then had bloody discharge. The pain and burning did not subside, rather, I became more sensitive and inflamed. I’m taking my 3rd dosage today, but so far I hate this product and wish I took a pill instead (which used to work for me in the past)."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "My doctor prescribed me this for a mild yeast infection, and little did I know it would set me on fire and make me miserable to where I didn't sleep all night. Not to mention the horrible cramps I had as well. I will never use this medicine again!!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This is the meanest, diabolical cream. Not sure what sick experiment this is. Do not believe good reviews, probably someone from the drug company. I had instant cramping, burnt the inside of me and the outside. Did not work! Report to Health Canada, the company itself, or FDA. Needs to go!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I was prescribed the 7-day dosage for my yeast infection, and it was going great! Then, on like the 4th day, I had the WORST cramps. My period cramps aren’t even this bad. It came to the point where I’d constantly wake up in the middle of the night because of the pain. It seems to be helping with my yeast infection, but these cramps are not worth it."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "DO NOT USE. I had a pretty bad yeast infection, so my OBGYN prescribed me this. It gave me horrible cramps and then a UTI!!! 100 times worse than the feeling of the YI. I read lots of reviews like this, but used the medicine anyway. Do not be like me! Read this and heed my warning! This shouldn't be prescribed to anyone. This was not an allergic reaction. It feels horrible, and I would take 100 yeast infections over this feeling now. Avoid this medication at all costs."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I got a yeast infection after a 10-day course of antibiotics. I was given Diflucan (one pill) and Monistat for 3 days. I still had discomfort after using these two medications. My OBGYN prescribed Terconazole for 7 days to completely eliminate the yeast infection. My experience has been ambivalent. It’s good because the burning and itchiness are gone, but I got my period on day one of using Terconazole. This medication made my period a complete nightmare. The stomach pain and cramping that this gives me are terrible. It has also made my flow worse. I have been feeling really weak. I am on day 4 of the 7-day course, and I cannot wait to finish it once and for all. Overall, it did what it was supposed to do-elongate the yeast infection, but the side effects have been really bad."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "My doctor prescribed terconazole, one that you apply for 14 days, but I couldn’t make it past day 2. The first night it was fine, but the second night I had a bit harder time getting the applicator in and was worried it wasn’t inserted deep enough. Woke up a few hours later with some of the most intense cramps I’ve ever experienced, plus nausea. I went to the bathroom, which got some of the cream out of me, and felt a bit better but still nauseous and uncomfortable. Finally got back to sleep and woke up still feeling a bit nauseous. I stopped taking it, and the two doses were not enough to cure the infection."
