For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This is my second time buying Tioconazole. The yeast infection only came back because I took a course of antibiotics, the first time it went away completely for a good while. Tioconazole burns and itches, trust me, I know, but that just means that it’s working. The more severe your infection is, the more it burns. It’s going to feel like you just inserted hot sauce into your kitty. Again, I feel the unbearable burning and itching, but the long-run results are worth it."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Yes, itching and burning after use, but nothing I couldn't tolerate. Woke up in the middle of the night to pee, and I'm good. No burning or itching, I'm sure it is doing its job. I'm thinking the ones who are experiencing those horrible symptoms had infections that were more advanced! I will definitely use this product again."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "If you’re like me and used this product before reading the reviews, just know, you may also like to ready an ice pack and an anti-inflammatory of some kind! I’m about 6 hours in and I’m pretty sure there is a tiny flamethrower inside the applicator. I read the instructions and it clearly states that remaining product can be applied to the outer parts, but unless you’re into pain, don’t do that. My lady bits started throbbing from the pain and now they have been renamed my no-no place!! It’s swollen and itchy and 12x worse than when I began this horrid road to recovery. I have faith in my who-ha that she will bounce back, but of all the beatings she’s taken over the years, this one’s got to be the worst few hours in her history."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "As a husband, I beg of you. Do not use this product. My wife is literally sitting in her bathtub, hunched over in pain and a few tears. You will absolutely regret using this product. This product burns, itches, and it's all around unbearable to watch, let alone endure."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "If you’re reading this, chances are you're already having an adverse reaction to this medication. I inserted it at 9 pm and woke up at 2 am with intense pain, swelling, and itching. I didn’t see any comments with advice on managing this, so I thought I would post what I did. I took a dose of Benadryl, ibuprofen, and put a pillow between my legs to keep them apart. By 9 am, the pain was gone, and I believe my yeast infection symptoms went with it. So in the end, I guess it worked, but it was so not worth it."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I got a vaginal yeast infection, and after literally scratching my skin raw, I decided to buy this. I kind of always go for the generic brands anyways. I was so scared after reading all the reviews, but I’m glad I tried it. The only thing I felt was very little itching for like an hour, but nothing I couldn’t handle, then after like 3-4 hours, I felt symptoms start to get better. I put it in last night around 7:30 pm, and now it’s 7 am, and I feel totally fine. I guess others had a little worse of an infection because I feel good. I would definitely buy again."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I do NOT recommend. I wish I would have read reviews beforehand. I’m highly upset I wasted time on this product. I didn’t experience any burning or extreme itching when I put it in, but I did wake up to a severely swollen vagina, and now it hurts to do anything. I’m so uncomfortable and can hardly sit down. I regret trying this and not just sticking with the Monistat 1."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "From reading the comments and after using this Tioconazole product myself. I think that maybe some yeast infections are worse than others because this is working great for me. The first time I got a yeast infection, I didn’t use anything and ended up in the ER because my symptoms sounded like a lot of symptoms here. I was swollen to where I couldn’t function properly and experienced burning and itching. But this second time around, I caught it within a few days and bought Tioconazole 1 Day and haven’t had problems yet."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Today I noticed some creamy discharge with white specs that appeared yeasty to me by the eye. So I bought this 1-day tioconazole. Shortly after, literally maybe 5-10 minutes after insertion, I felt some itching and a warmer feeling inside my vagina. THEN and only then did I read the reviews. Everyone is saying they have lots of burning, itching, and swollen lady parts. I really hope that doesn’t happen to me, seeing as though I wasn’t all the way sure of the symptom I noticed earlier in the day. Not sure if I should go push this medication out over the toilet like everyone says. But I am afraid I’ll wake up with a swollen vagina like the others. I’ll update soon..."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Never. Ever. Again. I inserted at about 6:45 pm and went on about my nightly routine. Around 8:30 I had some leak out and noticed a really bad itching, burning, stinging sensation immediately. Brought me to tears and thought about going to the ER... it's that bad. I took a warm oatmeal bath, which soothed it a little. I'm now lying in bed with an ice pack on my lady parts, still stings. I'm 2 hours into this fiery experience."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Ok, so just inserted Tioconazole about 20 min ago. Then decided to read all these reviews. So should have looked at this first. SMH. I'm itching like crazy, my lady parts are throbbing like crazy. Will never use this again. If you're smart and read reviews before you do this, you will be better off. This is my 2nd YI in my 35 years - it wasn't even that bad, this will make it feel 10x worse, trust me. I can actually feel her growing bigger. I plan to try and push it all out NOW. If you're like me, I would get it out now and hope for the best."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This product is horrible! Do not use, go to your doctor, I am not kidding! The burning and itching associated with the use of this product are unbearable! I'd rather have a YI untreated than use this again. I have had 3 YI in my 36 years and have always gone to my doctor. Almost immediately after inserting this product, I began to feel discomfort, not so bad, but as the night has gone on - this is awful. My vagina itches so badly that it's unbearable. I don't feel pain as some have reviewed, but the itching is literally insane! All I can hope is that this goes away soon. Do not use!!! You will regret!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Well, I was kind of skeptical about using the product because of some of the bad reviews. I decided to give it a try anyway, and I did not experience any of those symptoms. I inserted it last night after showering. No burning, no swelling, and barely itching. I woke up the next morning, and still no bad symptoms. Everything is coming out just fine to me. I use the off-brand kind too, by the way."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Worst thing I ever used in my life. DO NOT USE. I’ve always done the 3-day. Never this. Didn’t read reviews and SO wish I did. I had some white clumpy discharge and very mild itching. So wanted to just knock it out and got this. Worst mistake of my life. I had some burning, nothing too crazy, then some itching, really irritating more than even before. Then I woke up and my vagina is swollen and just blah. So horrible. And it had to be because of this. Because it was not swollen, itching, or burning prior. I’m so mad I did this. Save yourself, ladies. Please don’t use."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Guys, I so wish I would’ve looked up the reviews earlier. I went the cheaper route and just got Tioconazole 1 Day because the lady at Walmart said it would work the same as Monistat. I’m having the worst burning and itching sensation ever. I googled why and found all these reviews :( Save yourself!! I know everyone is different, but if the majority of women are feeling this, don’t waste your time. Spend the extra $5."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "So, like everyone else, I didn’t read the reviews. I inserted the medication and realized I had more itching than before, I also noticed the burning a lot more. To make matters worse, I used the cream for the external area, and I think I made it worse!!! I was trying to save a few dollars, never again. The pain isn’t the worst, but the itching is absolutely horrible."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Like most here on this website, laying down, itching and burning, trying not to think, so I can ignore it as much as possible. Not as painful as other medications I've tried before. I tried Monistat a couple of months ago, but it didn't do anything, so I'm trying this because it's a stronger treatment. Not unbearable, but most definitely, it burns."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I had an awesome experience with Tioconazole 1 Day, I was scared to try it because of all the bad reviews, but when I tried it, there was intense itching, but it was tolerable. I slept well, and after about 3 hours, the itching died down, but there was still a little itching, there just wasn’t as much. I didn’t experience any burning or swelling, I just woke up, so I didn’t get the chance to see if it hurts when I use the bathroom... so an amazing experience!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I purchased this Tioconazole 1 Day product on a Tuesday, and just like the others, my vagina swelled shut. I was in terrible pain. I’m on Jardiance, so YI are common, and normally I’d take Diflucan or I would use Monistat 7, and in a day or so I’m good. However, using this product is a different story. Here it is Friday, and I’m still itching and in pain. This product is not worth the $10 I paid. I highly recommend that this product be avoided at all costs. It was not effective and caused me pain."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Currently pregnant, and this is my 2nd yeast infection within 7 months. The 1st infection, I did the 5-day treatment with the medicine that begins with M... miconazole? No complaints about that; I just wanted it cleared up quicker than that. After itching and rubbing raw for over a week, I decided to try this 1-day treatment with the active ingredient tioconazole. It’s been about 30 min since I have inserted the medicine, and so far, so good. I was worried about the burning and itching others had experienced, but I feel like I burned and itched more before insertion. Fingers crossed it clears soon!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Tioconazole worked wonders for me! I took it 2 days after I noticed my YI coming on... (I’ve had them in the past, so I knew what it was right away), and I did NOT experience any of the crazy burning or itching like the other reviews say. But I did have a slight itch after I took it, but nothing unbearable. It took 4 days for my symptoms to be completely gone. I will use this again if I ever need it!"
