Anyone ever take fluconazole 150mg oral pill for a yeast infection in their first trimester. I phoned a pharmacist and he said it was fine and all the research I've done says as long as it's not in high doses the baby should be ok, but I am having some major anxiety.
For yeast infections I was always given either monistat or fluconazole. A bacterial infection like BV would require metronidazole (flagyl).
I was wondering if I could take monistat without knowing for sure if I have a yeast infection. So I was diagnosed with a yeast infection earlier in the month and was prescribed fluconazole for it. But a few days later I seen my partner again and we did it without protection and he thinks he has it as well.

I am 9 wks pregnant is it safe to take the fluconazole 200 mg to treat my yeast infection? It is only one pill but I am still unsure if it is safe...please help?
A month ago I self diagnosed and treated a yeast infection based on my previous yeast infection (diagnosed by a doctor a few years ago). I treated with Monistat (miconazole)cream, which mostly cleared up my symptoms. I still felt somewhat irritated down there so I went to the doctor. She took a swab sample that came back negative for yeast/bacteria/gonorrhea/chlamydia.I felt fine for 2 weeks, then felt intense burning during intercourse . A few days after that, the itch was back.
I have been using monistat 7 days. Eating yogurt and garlic a LOT. It's miserable!
It said my PH was normal so I began Monistat 7 day. I have now had 6 doses of that, and my Doctor prescribed me Fluconazole. I took that almost 72 hours ago and it feels like since all this treatment, the itching is just worse. It now itches more inside too. When should i get some relief? She said if the fluconazole doesn't work in 3 days to take a second dose, which I will do today.
Is this all normal? I'm a virgin so it's nothing sexually transmitted.
t one. Monistat 3, gyne-lotrimin, terazole (prescription) and fluconazole (prescription). No 1 day creams. This is specifically for yeast infections.
So the doc told me the monistat three day is safe and my mom got me the generic three day. Sorry if this seems dumb to whoever, i jus want to be safe.
Also use some antifungal pessaries like clotrimazole (Femizole-7), miconazole (Monistat-Derm, Monistat Vaginal) or nystatin which are available over the counter.If still the symptoms persist then oral antifungals may be needed.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps.
Ask for the fluconazole tablet from your doctor. It'll treat your yeast infection better and faster than Monistat and is far more convenient since it's a single pill you only have to take once.
Honestly, yeast isn't the only thing that can cause the same symptoms of a yeast infection, so I'd go to your ob and request a culture to make sure you're not working with a bacterial infection or anything more sinister...
You should be more careful! When you try to lose wight, you have to walk more at the first time, but in a few months you will be feel yourself better!
he took a urine sample for now. i have been taking the fluconazole for 2 days along with monistat. the three red bumps also have some white discharge from them and they do seem like they might be ulcerations because they look like little craters with white on the inside. it does not hurt to touch them although they are a bit sensetive. I dont know what this might be can someone please give me some more info.
You can get something like a cream (Canesten, Monistat) or you can get fluconazole (Diflucan) which is a tablet. The tablet takes a little longer to work as it needs to get into your bloodstream first. The cream gives you relief faster.
ve had a constant, unbearable itch since october of 2009 which started around the same time my period did. at first, i thought it was a yeast infection and used a 3day monistat treatment. the itch came back when my period ended. i again tried monistat and it didn't do a damn thing. i tried a product called yeast arrest which has a mixture of anti fungals, and went to planned parent hood.
I was diagnosed with a mild yeast infection. My doctor prescribed fluconazole pills but it only helped a little bit. I'm still having symptoms. I think she mentioned that she could prescribe a cream. Is there a difference between over the counter creams vs prescription creams prescribed by a doctor?
I developed a yeast around 8 weeks of pregnancy tried monistat and it burned like crazy so i only used it that one night out of 7. The dr said to try and let it go on its own. Now at 13 weeks pregnant symptoms are starting to arise again and i was preacribed terconazole. Just so many horrible things about it online that it scares me. Took the first dose laat night. Anyone have experience with yeast infections durimg prwgnancy and this med?
She came back and said she barely saw any yeast and she thought maybe it was because I had just used Monistat 7, so she put me on Fluconazole to clear up my yeast. My yeast cleared up after 3 days and my symptoms were relieved, but the itching came back 4 days later. I also noticed these small red bumps on my slightly swollen inner vagina that didn't itch and weren't painful. I went back to see another doctor and to also get tested for STDs.
It spread rapidly from my torso to my arms and legs, and my neck. I went to see a doctor, who prescribed Fluconazole (150mg, 1 capsule a week for 4 weeks). After a few days the lesions on my stomach began to fade, so I felt I was getting better. I have just taken my third Fluconazole pill. The bad news is that although some parts of my body are definitely better, new ringworm has appeared on my face in the last few days.
What should I do? I'm hoping to see the doctor again soon.
I had protected vagina sex and unprotected vagina oral sex with a guy couple days later I started having a itching, burning sensation in my vagina area also I had thick white discharge, I peeped down there and noticed a rash so I used the one day monistat and it went away but my vagina in the inside was swollen so I went to the health department and they looked and tested me and I came back positive for BV I was given Flagyl and after taking the flagyl the rash appeared again with cottage cheese
Hi -
We don't look at pics here. We aren't doctors, and sure wouldn't disagree with a doctor who has actually examined you.
If your doc thinks shaving bumps, it's probably shaving bumps. Add the irritation from monistat (and doesn't that stuff BURN), and a yeast infection, and I'm sure you're quite irritated.
Ask your doctor for oral fluconazole.
