For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I tried Monistat 1 thinking it would work, so I applied the “egg” in my vagina. About an hour or two later, I felt a tingle and had to use the restroom. Boy, oh boy! My poor vagina took a trip to a bad place and didn’t come back! I tried to lay down, that didn’t work. Man, was I in tears, I mean TEARS. I tried sitting in a cold bath of water, but it just burned right through the water. I finally tried an ice pack and just laid down so I could cool off a little, not because of the burning, and I noticed my vag got swollen as well! Popped a quick ibuprofen and went to sleep. Please do not use Monistat! If your vag itches and burns, just try to get through it after seeing a doc. This is something I don’t ever want to experience again."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "After suffering from a minor YI for a couple of days, I decided to use this product for the very first time. Last night around 11 pm, I inserted the egg and then I went to sleep not too long after. I was then awakened by an uncomfortable 'tingling' down there. (Although the feeling was quite uncomfortable, I wouldn't consider it burning or painful.) I then decided to research the side effects of this drug (which I should have done before I even decided to purchase it) - which led me to this website. I was horrified by stories of feeling on fire and swollen, bleeding vaginas. I seriously thought I was going to have a story like that. Thankfully, the tingle only lasted maybe 30-45 minutes, and almost 24 hours later, I feel great - although in the future, I do think I will be going the Rx route. I'm so sorry to read some of these awful experiences, and I truly hope you ladies found relief."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "My first time taking this product, I did it around 12 am. About 30 minutes after I’ve done it, I felt really warm down there. Around 1:30 am, I couldn’t sleep because my vagina was on fire, but after 2:30 am, I was able to sleep. Now it’s 11 am, and the burning is actually gone. I mean, it’s a little tingly down there, but the pain is gone. The pain didn’t last too long, but I don’t think I’ll be doing it again if I get a YI ever. That egg is pure lava, and I won’t be putting it in my vagina ever again. But if you have a severe YI, then this might be for you, but you’re gonna have to feel the pain we’ve all felt for a few hours. I say take it at night, it might be uncomfortable for you to sleep, but at least you won’t have to work through the pain or be in pain all day. I took it at night because I’m not gonna be walking around with an egg in my coochie like a chicken that’s about to give birth to this lava egg-no thanks!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I saw all the comments other women made, and I was afraid to try it. I'm glad I did. What works for one woman may not work for the next. I did feel a little tingling, but that was it. I don't know if the cream is better than the egg or not, but I used the cream. I didn't experience the extreme burning and itching, thankfully. I do feel bad for the ones that did. I say give it a shot, it may work."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This is my first time using this product, and about an hour after inserting the egg, I started to notice a lot of itching and a slight tingling feeling. So I googled reviews of the product, and here I am. I went through a lot of these reviews, reading everyone’s comments, and I honestly don’t experience extreme burning or discomfort other than the itching, but I used the cream that’s supposed to help with itching and burning, and I feel a lot better. I would honestly rather go through this now at nighttime than to walk around during the day with a yeast infection! So I would recommend this, but if you’re very sensitive down there or can’t handle discomfort, I would just go straight to doctors."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I genuinely believe that the women describing this experience as painful beyond comprehension are either experiencing an allergic reaction to the medication or using it improperly. This is my first time using Monistat 3 cream. I decided to use it during the day despite instructions to use it at bedtime. I inserted the product around 1 p.m. and went about my day, vacuuming, putting up the Christmas tree, making lunch, paying bills, etc. I checked my pantyliner regularly to ensure I wasn't losing product. Everything felt normal. Several hours in I felt a very subtle warm, tingling sensation. It never amounted to anything. After making dinner around 7 p.m., I used the bathroom and some product was on the liner, the rest went into the toilet. No pain."
