diflucan
When I had the strep b my dr gave me a antibiotic but when I'm on a antibiotic Long periods of time I get yeast infection which then they could give u a diflucan.
m currently treating a vaginal yeast infection and was wondering what your experiences were with Diflucan? How long does a typical yeast infection last? The itching and burning have subsided, and I took my first diflucan pill Sunday (doc gave me 4). I'm also using Vagisil for itching and irritated skin! Thanks!
I have been getting a yeast infection every month right before my period comes. This month i went to the doctor because i noticed i was having discharge and it had a bad odor. The doctor said i had BV and gave me Metronidazole, i should take it for seven days twice a day. While i was taking the pill, a yeast infection came. Then i got my period and it started to clear up. That happens every month, i get the infection, my period clears it up. The next month it happens again.
My urologist prescribed 150mg tablets of Diflucan. The first week (last week) I took two of these pills. This seemed to help, the last three days I have had no burning during my morning urine. I still have the itching after ejaculation, but the itching is no longer as intense.
I saw my urologist again today to report my progress, and he prescribed 2 more of the Diflucan pills for this week. This should clear it up entirely, he believes.
My problem is this.
I used monostat one day and it did work but takes about 2 days. Why won't your doctor prescribe diflucan? It's a tablet you take and works well. It's not an antibiotic as antibiotics actually cause yeast infections but an antifungal (which yeast is a fungal issue). I'd ask for diflucan if your doctor is open to you being able to do that.
i took my diflucan pill on monday, but i wanted to know is a white discharge a side effect of the pill? i have taking diflucan multiple times before, but i never bothered those times to actually look and see what was going on down there. this time i did and it seems like a white discharge is coming out...someone told me that was the yeast mixing w/the medicine coming out. is that true?
BTW, taking antibiotics with a probiotic is helpful to help rid yourself ot the yeast and also reestablish your intestinal "good bacteria" depending on the bacteria you are fighting and the antibiotic and how broadly it works will depend on whether or how fast the probiotic organisms work. An adult should take a probiotic that is 10 billion organsims per colony forming unit (CFU).
ve had chronic yeast infections (4-6 a year) for about 3 years now. 2 years ago my doctor prescribed Diflucan and it worked well for a while (cleared up the infection right away). About 8 months ago the Diflucan stopped being as effective, and I would have to take one 150mg pill then followed by another 150mg pill 3 days later.
For the past 6 months I've had a yeast infection that has not really gone away. I have relief for a couple days to a week max and then the symptoms returned.
If you tested at 2 days after sex, yes, it was too early to be conclusive. How long has it been now?
When did you take the diflucan? That can take up to a week or so to fully work. Don't do any more self-treatments or take any other medications unless you get tested first. You could have bacterial vaginosis and self-treating with diflucan could make it worse.
Rubbing a penis on a vulva isn't unusual, though I understand why that's concerning given your symptoms now.
Do you all think what she prescribed didnt get rid of it or do you think that by me having sex the day after i finished my prescription irritated my vagina and caused for it to come back? How long are you suppose to wait after a yeast infection to have sex? Any suggestions would be great bc im sick of going back and forth to the gyno for this!!
