What Causes Vaginal Bleeding While On Monistat?
Question: I am having bleeding while taking Monistat. Should I discontinue use? Is it normal?
Brief Answer:
No need to discontinue
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
There is no relation between monistat and bleeding so I don't think you need to discontinue the drug.
But in case this bleeding persists then visit your gynecologist for examination of state of cervix because at times if there is an infected cervical erosion then after the infection gets cured by monistat the cervical erosion starts showing openly on examination and thus can even bleed in some patients.
Take care
