Suffering From Yeast Infections, Itching. Taking Flucanzole, Monistat. Treatment For Infection?
Hi I recently went to my doctor and was told that I have a yeast infection so she gave me a flucanzole pill prescription and told me to get monistat 7 but to take it only 5 days...today is going to be the last day im supposed to take it but I ve been itching...when I pee in the morning I sometimes pee out the cream and also happens sometimes at night. Is it not being affective? Or does that mean its working? Please help and thank you.

Hi, Thank you for posting your question here, I will try to answer it to the best of my abilities.
It is possible that you need to take a longer dosage or need stronger medication. Once this dosage is over, see your doctor again for a follow up and ask him to run a culture test to find out whether the infection is gone or not.
I hope this answered your question.
