For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Well, as you will read, this product was the WORST. Five minutes after inserting the egg, it began to slowly tingle, which turned into an itch that turned into an intense burn. I sat in the toilet for a solid hour before the burn went away, and I think it's because the pain was so bad I was numb down there. LOL But I rated it a 5 because after that hour the pain was about a 1/10, and I didn’t feel itchy at all, and a day later I believe my YI was completely cleared up. I only recommend you use this item if you can push through some pain. Try taking something that will put you to sleep 30 minutes before inserting the egg. Also, not going to lie, reading these reviews helped a lot to ease the pain. God be with us all. LOL"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Please just get the diflu one-time pill. This egg made me cry for hours, I cussed my girlfriend out while itching and burning. I felt like life would be better if I just died. It started to ease up after a few hours, but the itch never went away. Oh, and the cream that comes with it... don't even try to use that! It makes EVERYTHING worse. It only sucks because some people either don't have insurance or this life-ruining infection creeps up on the weekend when you can't go to your OB/GYN. Females should be able to get the pill from the pharmacy just as well as they can get a Plan B because these creams and eggs are a setup."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I've never had a yeast infection before, but know a few people who have, and they described it as the worst feeling ever! Well... I AGREE! But after using Vagistat-1, I was relieved of the horrible itching and burning in a little over 8 hours. I still itch a little, but the burning is gone (in its defense, it did say 3 days). I recommend it to anyone suffering from a vaginal yeast infection."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I went to the doctor and was told I had a yeast infection. They gave me a 7-day treatment, it went away, but symptoms came back 2 weeks later. I was so irritated that I came and bought Vagistat 1-day treatment tonight, couldn’t wait until tomorrow to see a doctor. I literally just inserted it, and I feel relief already, no burning or irritation."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I was honestly so worried that I had Trichomoniasis until I read the difference between the vaginal discharge. I was so relieved to find out that it's a yeast infection (self-diagnosed, don't judge). I just started my Vagistat-3, day one, about an hour ago, and honestly, I don't feel as bad of burning as I did. There's still some itch, but for the most part, I can feel it starting to soothe my poor girl. Due to itching, it was so swollen and sore. Now the swelling has definitely gone down some. THANK YOU, VAGISTAT! (update tomorrow)"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "At first, it feels like it's not working and you feel like you have no hope, but I promise it works well, at least it did for me. Personally, I didn’t really feel the progress until nighttime, and then you can really tell it’s working, and I’m on night 2 and I feel a drastic change in itching and burning. The cream also helped a lot with healing soreness and irritation!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I purchased the 1-day ovule, it's been 4 days, and I'm getting constant burning and itching. I'm not sure if this is going to cure my yeast infection. Can't get an earlier appointment with my doctor, so I'm now in line at the store getting the 3-day pre-application tioconazole."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "So I came to read the reviews for totally different reasons, and I'm super surprised at how many people had negative reactions. I think it might have burned a little and itched in the very beginning, but almost immediately, the symptoms I had from the infection improved within the first 30 minutes. I'm now on the day after, and it feels so much better. I was swollen, itchy, and burning a little before. I think the medication, but the medication didn't cause the symptoms to get worse. It actually rectified the problem pretty swiftly. I can only assume that the other people who had negative reactions are either allergic to the ingredients in this medication because there are inactive ingredients other than the tioconazole, or had a much more severe yeast infection than I had. This medication is a lifesaver, and I'm so glad it's on the market!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Inserted cream as I had itching, upon completion, I then feel itching but burning and swelling more. So irritating that I had to lay still, got a mirror to look and see if I could see anything different than before, but no. Two hours later, I'm swollen, burning, and slight itching. I would not recommend this, go see a doctor at urgent care or your PCP. Will not use this again, hoping I don't have to go to the ER in the a.m."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Yeast infection burning and itching got so much worse after insertion. It's now 3 days later, and I still have the same yeast infection. Total waste of money, and if I could rate this a 0/10, I would."
