I'm going to give it to your straight! Due to this being a one day treatment, the medicine is MUCH stronger than the three-seven day creams. Therefore, you will experience some major burning sensation, mild itching and some serious leakage. I inserted the oval four hours ago and i'm experience mild burning and the leakage is something serious, so ensure you're wearing some old panties and conforma...

3 weeks ago I purchased the Monistat 1 Day due for symptoms of a yeast infection. I inserted the medicine and used the external cream and decided to take a nap. When I woke up, my insides were on fire. I couldn’t close my legs; there was an intense burning sensation when I urinated. It was very difficult to wash; mild soap and water caused my genitals to burn. I made an emergency called my physici...

I inserted the capsule about 20 minutes ago and the itch and burn is way worse than it was before. I put on the cream it came with and it hasn't helped at all. I want this thing out of me, but I also don't want to deal with this infection anymore. I'm going to try and withstand the rest of this, but I would not recommend this. I wish I knew what I was getting myself into with this product.

Terrible misleading product. 15 mins after inserting the ovule I experienced THE WORST burn and itch I have ever known. It was so bad that my husband found me in bathroom sitting on the floor crying. I immediately took two Benadryl, a warm bath, tried spraying it out... Nothing provided complete relief. I am typing this at 4 in the morning because I am unable to sleep with this burn and irritation. Please just go to your dr and get the oral prescription. I'm telling you right now it's just not worth the pain :(Read More Read Less

Had a yeast infection so I took monistat 1 around 8pm started cooking dinner and felt it coming out. It didn't burn at first but 10 min later I started to feel discomfort next thing you know my vagina was on fire and I was on the floor crying and begging Jesus Christ for mercy. I would have rather been dead! My boyfriend thinks I was over reacting and after I read these reviews I knew I wasn't just being a baby after all! Please think twice before using monistat 1! I wouldn't wish this kind of pain in my worst enemy. I would not recommend because my vagina still kinda burns ;(Read More Read Less

After reading the reviews of others, I was apprehensive about using this product although I had used it several years ago without any problems. I must be fortunate, as I had none of the issues mentioned. I have sensitivity issues "down there" and have to be very careful with soaps, detergents, etc, but had nothing but positive results with this product... Thank heavens!

I had a yeast infection and felt like maybe the over the counter stuff could work. The cream kinda work for me but every time I apply it it would burn like a fire was on my vagina. I wish i would had read the reviews before I brought this product. Now about to make an hospital run. Hopefully I can get out before it's time for work!

okay, i knew going in that not everything works for every person. So i waited a day till i felt like i couldn't take the itch anymore then tried it after a hot shower, which i do recommend. I also knew from friends that some people use it when they don't need to or forget to use the external creme or use the external creme inside, so i was cautious. Worked great! I got an infection that was crazy itchy from taking amoxicillian. So if you get random infections during the year like i do just from taking any meds, this is the way to go when it gets bad. Also, you should consult your doctor...i consulted a nurse friend.Read More Read Less

worked fast, worked great, no issues what so ever. talked with my doctor said those who felt the burning were most likely treating a YI when they didnt infact have one.

3 weeks ago I purchased the Monistat 1 Day due for symptoms of a yeast infection. I inserted the medicine and used the external cream and decided to take a nap. When I woke up, my insides were on fire. I couldn’t close my legs; there was an intense burning sensation when I urinated. It was very difficult to wash; mild soap and water caused my genitals to burn. I made an emergency called my physician for immediate attention. My gentles were a purplish-red color and fully inflamed. There was nothing I could do to get relief and the systems lasted for 2 weeks. Today, my gentles are still discolored and intercourse is very uncomfortable. I’m a newlywed and I can’t believe how miserable I am from this produce. I followed the exact instructions and should not have experience such pain and discomfort.Read More Read Less

Like others, I opted for this when a yeast infection came on because I had a big weekend planned with my boyfriend and wanted to enjoy it. Boy did that backfire. I felt intense burning shortly after inserting the suppository in the evening, and was in severe pain the next day and only slightly less severe pain the day after. At the end of that first day my vulva was so swollen that I couldn't wipe after urinating. It was huge. If it didn't hurt so much, it would have been kind of cool. Ice brought down the swelling, and I spent the night of the first day and all of the second day with icepacks between my legs. On the third day, I felt a lot better-much like I had when the yeast infection first came on, that is itchy, but not burning and able to walk. She noted that the yeast was still there and prescribed a Diflucan. I am sure not everyone has such a terrible experience, else they would not have been able to get this stuff approved, but it's clear that enough people do that one should tread carefully. Get a Diflucan or do the 3 day treatment. In trying to guarantee myself a fun weekend, I totally ruined it with this stuff.Read More Read Less

I read all these horribly reviews after I had already used this product and was terrified. So, for those of you out there thinking about using this product just keep in mind that most people only review products if they are unhappy with them. My experience with this product was great. For about 1 hr after administering the ovule I was slightly painful (more of an irritating stinging), but since I used Vagisil cream as well as the cream that comes in the Monistat pack, it helped with my discomfort. I took this at 8:30pm and by 7:30 am the next morning I felt soo relieved. I still have a small visible infection, but I've been using the Monistat cream with the Vagisil and feel significantly better.Read More Read Less

This is the scariest over-the-counter experience I've ever come across. I almost went to the emergency room because the burning got so bad. It was the worst about 3-4 hours after use. I ended up getting in the shower to try and get the remainder out. I cried for almost an hour wondering what to do with the pain. Do not use! Call your doctor for a Diflucan if at all possible!
