diflucan

Avatar f tn I have a yeast infection I am almost 6weeks pregnant and I took diflucan for the infection will this harm my baby
Avatar n tn I took the Diflucan. Day 5 i got my period. What do i do now?? And can i re-fill my Diflucan to take when i am thru with the antibiotic?? And really no tampons?? at all??
Avatar f tn She recommended a gyn doctor that is good with diseases but he is no longer at the hospital she sent me too. I am constantly getting creams and diflucan for the yeast infections. I feel that my gyn is not meeting my need. I do not want to live on the creams and diflucan. I heard about a gyn on the radio that I would like to go to. I will make an appointment with her. I never took diflucan long term. I will get two diflucans at one time.
Avatar f tn Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. Diflucan can pass into breast milk and may harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.
Avatar n tn The bleeding was light for the first week and very heavy for the last two weeks. I went to see an OBGYN and she took a simple and blood work...I have very painful and tender womb now still bleeding and awaiting the lab results. Please any advice is greatly appreciated.
1472764 tn?1287588186 I'm 16 weeks and I'm suffering from a horrible yeast infection. I took 7 days of terazol and 3 days of monistat. Neither helped. Creams usually don't on me. Diflucan is the only thing that works but my dr. said he doesn't prescribe it during pregnancy. I'm so sick of it. I'm miserable. Has anyone ever taken diflucan when they were pregnant? What are the side effects to the baby?
Avatar f tn if you have done treatments and it hasnt gotten any better i would go to a dr and get them to check it out, it could be something else. And maybe they can give you something for it.
Avatar f tn A few days after finishing the antibiotics I began to have the same symptoms as the yeast infection and took diflucan and monistat again. A couple weeks after that irritation I experienced similar symptoms again. I took monistat for a day and I was fine. Now 3 weeks later I have the same faint burning and itching on the outside of my vaginal opening. I have searched my vagina and have no skin irritation or bumps just the itch and burn sensation.
525485 tn?1314361301 In my experience, the over the counter creams do not work for me but I am extremely sensitive to medications. I alwasy call my doctor and she'll call in a script for me. But, I think Diflucan is the only oral medication (at least it's the only oral medication I've ever heard of for yeast infections).
Avatar f tn Went back for another urine culture, this time it came back Klebsiella. Took Cipro for 10 days and started diflucan on day 5 of that in case it caused a yeast infection. I'm still having the same stinging pain! I saw my OB again yesterday, had STD tests done again and a urine culture. Waiting on those results... I'm so stressed and I'm not sure what this could be and am resulting to asking others if they've had anything similar? Could this be herpes?
Avatar n tn I am 38 weeks pg., and have had a yeast inf. for about a week and a half...I have taken the Diflucan pill once, a cream (one time application) once, and now the Dr. gave me more Diflucan..... what else can I do???? Should I buy some over the counter monistat and use that too???? It is such a stubborn infection with all these hormones....what the heck do I do at this point??? I am so frustrated. Please help me.
Avatar f tn I'm 16weeks pregnant and month ago notice a little itching, discharge, and swelling after intercourse. It was quite painfull a bit because it burned..especially after I urinated. I told my doc I thought it was an yeast infection and he prescribed me a pill..I took it with a glass if water. The description said most people feel better and symptoms lesson within 24.hours its been 5 days and it seems to gotten worse.. way More discharge, alot more inchiness especially at night and morning..
Avatar n tn Did a urine test for STDs (chlamydia, gonnehrea) all negative. He prescribed Diflucan and gave me 2 pills. I took the first one and the symptoms got a lot better. Then (my thought is it wasn't fully healed) after sex it returned. So I took another Diflucan, everything seemed cool. Then I got a really bad cold and was prescribed a Z pack. Surprise! Yeast was back. So I went to the doctor and this time they did a "wet mount" turns out I had BV and Yeast together.
Avatar f tn I went to urgent care for treatment and was given diflucan and it didnt put a dent in it, so I went back. I was given more diflucan and it didnt do anything. I waited to see a gynocologist and had a pap smear and STD test, went back for an HPV screen. I was negative for it all and was given diflucan by her as well. I went back to her a second time and she gave me a cream for a yeast infection after admitting she didnt see signs for one and didnt know why I would be burning.
Avatar f tn since then i have been to my gyno who cultured my yeast infection and said best medication for it was diflucan, so he also prescribed me to diflucan for 7 days-never went away. then he again prescribed me diflucan 150 once for 3 weeks. never went away!!! this is my first yeast infection so i dont know why diflucan will not cure me. i am 22 years old, smoke and drink on the weekends, work out regularly, work nights, recently pretty stressed.
Avatar f tn Hi...candida is yeast and it can cause all types of issues...DIFLUCAN is one of the best meds I know to help rid someone of excess yeast. There r also diet changes that can also help..... I am prone to yeast infections when taking antibiotics, and DIFLUCAN is the only thing that helps. As far as dosage, sorry I can not help...I would suggest asking a Pharmacist as they know meds and interaction and reactions better then most drs.
Avatar f tn Well i do know that certain antibiotics do stop the effectivness of birth control and there is the possibility of getting pregnant from the pull out method. I would wait to see if it comes, stress is always a factor when waiting to get your period. If it doesn't come within a few days I would take that pregnancy test just to see.
757371 tn?1269963037 Yeast discharge is white, creamy and clumpy though and i had white discharge on tues and wed but it was cloudy and liquidy. Uff!! Please help!
Avatar f tn Yes it's safe after 12 weeks. I am on round 2 of my dose. I am a rare case and I get VERY bad yeast and BV infections which cause bladder retention and usually have to get catherized for a week. I've had a cath 4 times this pregnancy and i'm only 16 weeks! I just took diflucan again yesterday and have another dose I will be taking in 3-5 days if the symptoms are still here. When I'm not pregnant I use oil of oregano orally for yeast.
290018 tn?1240365868 I know that you can use monistat, but I am suprised that your doctor didnt perscribe something like Diflucan. I had a yeast infection and that is what my doctor prescribed. It worked super fast. I am not completely farmiliar with what Vagisil is...
Avatar n tn He told me to take Diflucan once to re stabilize my digestive system and take acidopholus once daily. He also directed me to buy monstat topical cream to apply three times a day and selsun blue to apply once daily for 20 minutes, wow! I am not noticing anything getting better and was wondering how long before I should notice anything changing. My stomach cramps have subsided but not the infection on my penis tip.
14346590 tn?1451854557 My doctor gave it to me yesterday and I read that it has Not been proven safe for pregnant or nursing women. And no smart comments about "your doc wont give you anything unsafe to take while prego" because I started bleeding a WHOLE bunch last night/this morning around 1am and I had to go to the hospital. That's why I'm asking.
Avatar f tn Hi! I really need help with this one....i'm 13 weeks pregnant and 2 weeks ago i developed a yeast infection caused by an antibiotic porescribed by my Ob/Gyn. I went straight to him and he prescribed me with Monistat....a week passed..finished the treatment and i could still see that white discharge...went back to my doctor and he prescribed Terconazole....i just finished the treatment 2 days ago....and i still have it!!!!! In the past the only thing that worked for me was Diflucan.....
Avatar f tn Dont take diflucan whilst pregnant doctor said its not good for baby but i got canneston cream instead seems to be working so far
Avatar n tn Thank u! R u guys doctors or nurses ?
12182312 tn?1427683956 I went to my doctor and she prescribed diflucan and also clomitozole?? (Sp)...I am so itchy and sore I want to cry. Should I try monistat 7. Or wait out the diflucan?. What works for you?
Avatar n tn But my insurance want pay for it because they he said it is a risk for the baby. Has this happened to anyone else? Or have you taken diflucan and everything turned out fine? Not to mention she only prescribe me 2 pills one every 24 hours and that's it.
