TMI Question

in Stay at Home Moms
So, apparently I got a yeast infection from running in the morning and then doing MOMS Club stuff after...  yeah, not only did I stink, now I am paying for it.

I did a Monostat 1 last night and still have undesirable discharge.  Would you wait a day, go get another one, wait it out to Monday and call the doc for the pill?

    I haven't had a YI since before DD was born but what worked best for me was cranberry juice and AZO (you can get it at Walgreens or CVS)

    I think Monistat takes a day or 2 to kick in? @hls19 I think you are confusing a uti with a yi

    No bueno. The one day ones never seemed to really take care of the problem...I always do the 3day. Maybe call the doc mon? I like the pill form too.

    Wait... I'm very confused. How do you think you got the infection? From running? And not taking a shower before doing other stuff? Seems unlikely, no? Am I missing something?

    Hanging out in sweaty, wet clothes for a couple hours after my workout was finished.  I was notably sore down yonder one of the days this week.

    Thanks ladies, I will wait it out until tomorrow and if I need to run & get the 3 day treatment I will.  I eat yogurt daily - and am really not about to stick garlic in my who-ha or yogurt for that matter.

    I just had one and tried the one day and it didn't help. I got the 7 day one and it took care of it. Good luck!

    Ha- you know, you're probably a better worker-outer than I am. I can imagine that if you're super wet and sweaty it could cause problems... but uh, I never have that issue. I really need to start carving out some time for myself to work up a good sweat.
    I took Friday off and just walked, the other days I ran 3 miles with a 6 miler today.
