I bought this product on a whim because my YI was getting so bad that I couldn't stand the itching and pain anymore. So I went to Dominicks and picked up Monistat 1. When I came home I started reading reviews on here and was terrified about the pain people were having. After 5 minutes of debating if I wanted to do it, I finally went ahead and did it.

I bought this product on a whim because my YI was getting so bad that I couldn't stand the itching and pain anymore. So I went to Dominicks and picked up Monistat 1. When I came home I started reading reviews on here and was terrified about the pain people were having. After 5 minutes of debating if I wanted to do it, I finally went ahead and did it. I inserted the ovule,which did cause some discomfort since my vagina opening was so swollen, and applied some of the creme to the itchy parts and immediately went to bed. I didn't wake up at all. There was NO PAIN whatsoever. And I think I feel a lot better. My labia and clit are still swollen and a bit sore but I'll use the itchy creme for that. Overall I am really pleased with this product.

I ran to rite aid and grabbed the monistat 1 and used it before bed. about 2 hours after inserting the ovule I had the most intense pain and itching....felt like someone shoved hot coals in my vagina. The next morning my vagina and vulva were so swollen I could barely walk or close my legs. It even ... Show Full Comment

The next morning my vagina and vulva were so swollen I could barely walk or close my legs. It even hurt sitting. It has been about 24 hours since I used it. With the help of Advil the pain and itching are subsiding....although I am still swollen. I will NEVER use the one day again

I don't get YI often and this is the first time I chose an OTC medicine. I don't consider myself to be a sensitive person so when I read the reviews I thought id be fine. I was wrong. I'm not one to B**** and moan about stuff but this medication(Monistat 1 day/night combo) SUCKS(at least for me)! I followed the instructions to the T and about 30minutes later I started to feel a gradual itching sen ... Show Full Comment

I don't get YI often and this is the first time I chose an OTC medicine. I don't consider myself to be a sensitive person so when I read the reviews I thought id be fine. I was wrong. I'm not one to B**** and moan about stuff but this medication(Monistat 1 day/night combo) SUCKS(at least for me)! I followed the instructions to the T and about 30minutes later I started to feel a gradual itching sensation. It was so uncomfortable that I found it impossible to even attempt to go to sleep. It got so bad I was squeezing my legs so tight just to get that 5 seconds of relief. For those people who think "we" (the people who the medication has failed) NO, I'm not being DRAMATIC. Just because it worked for you doesn't mean everyone else is exaggerating. Anyway after dealing with this issue for about 2 hours I couldn't take it anymore and right then and, there I remembered the most IMPORTANT thing just at that very moment. When I bought Monistat 1, I also purchased a box of douches. I couldn't have ran to the bathroom any faster. I douched every bit of that cream out and although there was still a little bit of itchiness it was so minute that I fell asleep as soon as my head hit my pillow. IN the morning I was totally fine. Maybe I wasted $17 by flushing it out before it can take affect but I'd do that any day especially if there was an itch you cannot scratch. Screw that nothing is worth feeling that way over. ***MY PIECE OF ADVICE TO THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE NOT TRIED MONISTAT IS BUY A BOX OF DOUCHES. YOU CAN NEVER GO WRONG WITH BUYING A $3 BOX OF INSURANCE. TRUST ME IF YOU'RE LIKE ME IT'LL BE THE BEST DECISION YOU COULD'VE POSSIBLY HAVE DONE WALKING INTO THAT STORE.***

Not sure what all the fuss is about. I got a yeast infection which I self diagnosed just because I go to school out of state from my home doctor and the health center on campus is pretty worthless. So I looked up my symptoms and was pretty confident in my self-diagnosis. I went to the drug store and bought monistat 1 and used it before bed. I followed the instructions.

So I looked up my symptoms and was pretty confident in my self-diagnosis. I went to the drug store and bought monistat 1 and used it before bed. I followed the instructions. I was terrified that I would wake up with the burning and pain that all the online reviews said but I slept through the night and woke to no pain at all. Upon standing up and walking throughout the day there was a little spillage, but nothing significant. My itching was gone and by the need of the day my symptoms were pretty much gone. Overall I recommend this. It was easy and effective.

I took monistat 1 for the first time. I did not read any reviews about it previously. When i told my boyfriend he was scolding me...saying he read all this stuff about it..burning etc. But I did not experience any discomfort really. So like I've read on some reviews...it just doesn't work the same for everyone.
