I've been using Monistat 7 for about twenty four hours to treat yeast infection symptoms: redness around vagina, small bumps around vagina, tenderness & redness of skin between vagina & anus, itching & burning around vagina labia & my clit. To make it worse I just got my period too. Since Monistat 7 says only use the cream externally twice per day I've been using Cortizone & an itch relief creme containing diphenhydramine. I went out with my bf earlier today to go shopping, have dinner, visit his housemates & then we came back to my place. My hood began to itch a bit after we got back so I went & put some of the Monistat around it. A little bit later I went to use the bathroom & noticed that my hood was extremely swollen (several times it's normal size). I've used something like Monistat before for my two previous yeast infections (I'm 25 now) & have not had this problem before. What can I do to make the swelling go down?

you are having an allergic reaction to the monistat. stop use and wash off or get it out..the treatment &/or itch cream. i had the same reaction but 150x worse. i used it more than 3 wks ago and am still feeling the negative reaction to the monistat. my gyno has no solution other that sitz baths a couple times a dy, no sex til 100%, and never use monistat(or even generic brand) products because i will prob have a bad side effects again. i've done some research and more thatn 70% of users have had horrific experiences as well and product should not be on shelves really. oh & i've used monistat before too and this time around i am in tears.. good luck.
