After treating a vaginal yeast infection with Monistat (antifungal), is it normal to experience vaginal redness, itching, burning and skin peeling like a sunburn? I’m pretty concerned about it, but I won’t be able to get into the doctor for a few days.

I just finished taking antibiotics a few days ago and now i have a yeast infection. Last night i took my first treatment. It was a suppository and vaginal cream. My husband insertered the suppository tube following directions. There was some discomfort while inserting the suppository tube and during removal. After there was no pain. This morning i noticed light spotting. I don’t know if this is due to the treatment or if my period is comming since its already late. Its important i figure it out since im supposed to start fertility meds on day 5 of my period.

Okay so I’m on the last few days of my UTI medicine and I have been inching down there for maybe 2 days now. Is it normal to get a yeast infection after a UTI? Also I can’t afford to go back to the doctor so how do I treat a yeast infection at home? Thanks!

I know this is gross, but I have searched like crazy and can’t find the answer. I got my first small yeast infection and found a ton of info saying that yogurt (and putting a garlic clove up there is supposed to work, too) could cure a yeast infection, and to actually put yogurt down there and…inside. Well, I got desperate and actually did it. I also did the garlic for 3 nights.
I keep checking myself to see if the white discharge is gone, but I am still finding some white stuff, which is not lumpy like they say yeast infections are (but it is definitely white, and not something else), no yeasty smell, and is almost like a liquidy texture.
Is this the yogurt coming out still? It’s been about two days since I did that treatment (the frozen yogurt tampon). How do other people get the yogurt out? Does it come out naturally? Get absorbed? If I only find a tiny bit of that and maybe one small (I mean tiny) bit of yeast, am I pretty much home free?
Also, I bought Actimel (euro version of DanActiv) which is a yogurt drink with lots of live cultures. Will drinking, say, 8 small bottles of this in the course of a day for a few days help curing this along?
I know this is a lot, but the question about getting the yogurt out is the most important! What is supposed to happen?!
