I thought I had a yeast infection so I took monistat 1 and had a horrible reaction, burning even worse and my labia swelled to the size of my finger. First it was one side, then both and now when I wake up in the morning it is only the back of one side. Should I still seek care?
Hi welcome to ChatDoctor1 can understand your concern yes you need to seek care. Meet your nearest gynecologist. Accorning to your history I think you are having vaginal candidiasis. Common treatment for vaginal treatment 1 it can be managed with either topical antifungal agents or a single dose of oral fluconazole.2 A single dose of oral fluconazole (150 mg) in acute episodes of vaginal candidiasis. 3 A small percentage (so monist at is not the tablet to be taken, and you are allergic to it. That is the reason for your illness. Thank you take care
