What Causes Bleeding After Applying Monistat Vaginal Cream?
So I figured I had all the symptoms of a bacterial infection especially cause it smelled fishy so I went to my doctor and he said it was a yeast infection so I took monistat vaginal cream for it. The first night I took it, it itched and burned, I was on the nearly last day of my period where there was barely any blood and when I woke up the next morning there was red blood , A nurse told me to continue to take it the next day so I did. It is still bleeding lots and I am kinda worried because I started my person last Tuesday and it is Wednesday now and the blood is still lots and really red I am very concerned. Should I continue taking the Monistat?
