I don’t know what the powder is you’re referring to–if you THINK you have a yeast infection but aren’t sure, please see a doctor to find out, as other infections can have similar symptoms. It is usually a cream or a pill that is prescribed to treat it. Also, OTC creams can work, and there are detailed instructions with the packaging. I don’t know about the powder as being something that would actually treat this.

Q&A: Should I treat a yeast infection if I only have one symptom?
Question by liz n: Should I treat a yeast infection if I only have one symptom?
I am 8 months pregnant, I just treated a yeast infection a month ago with Monistat 3, and it worked fine. My only symptom is itching. I do not want to pay for the doctor to test for a yeast infection. So should I assume it is a yeast infection and treat it with Monistat again since it has worked before?
Best answer:
Answer by none n
Well, you COULD – but I’d call the doctor first to make sure it’s okay, and they don’t want to check you just to be safe.
You might not have one, you could be producing a lot of discharge, which can seriously irritate your delicate parts.
They sell yeast infection test kits around the same area. Ask the pharmacist if you don’t see it.
But the bottom line is, call the doctor anyway. At this stage you don’t want to take the liberty to self-medicate with anything.

Whats the best way to keep a yeast infection away while pregnant?
Question by Danielle H: Whats the best way to keep a yeast infection away while pregnant?
I am 20 weeks pregnant and I have a yeast infection. I went to the obgyn and they said to put creams on it and eat lots of yogurt, but most the time the creams don’t help. I was also wondering how much yogurt I should eat a day to help keep it away?
Best answer:
Answer by mommeof3
You may want to look into taking a probiotic. They are available in the vitamin section of most drug stores. Probiotics contain the active cultures that are in yogurt. Raspberry leaf tea (health food store), not raspberry flavored tea, also is good at keeping down yeast infections. Eating a couple of servings of an organic yogurt with live cultures is still a good idea even for the extra calcium, I like Stoneybrook farms. Cranberries are another help with infections. Good luck

Can i mix monistat 3 with Plain yogurt for my yeast infection?
Question by Alex Edmondson: Can i mix monistat 3 with Plain yogurt for my yeast infection?
I have a yeast infection and it’s almost gone but i was wondering if it would be more effective to mix yogurt and the monistat suppository. I have also been taking 1000 mg of Oderless Garlic and have eaten some yogurt. I have been watching what i eat and have been drinking lots of water.
It’s not to eat -_- it’s to put up there! Yogurt is okay to use inside your vagina for yeast infections and so is monistat so my question was can i mix them, NOT TO EAT THEM.
Best answer:
Answer by sugar-glider queen
Yes you absolutely can.
Here is what you should do: use the medication at night, apply yogurt down there for a couple hours sometime during the day. I wouldn’t put them both at the same time (I don’t know why but my MIL is a nurse and said not to)~ do it separately.
Be sure the yogurt is Plain and not flavored.
Also, It would also help you to eat some of the yogurt and even take acidophilus which has the same stuff yogurt does. (if you are on antibiotics and that is why you got the yeast infection then wait to take the acidophilus until you are done with the antibiotics, taking them together will lessen the effects of antibiotics.)

Question by bee: How Much Effect Does Eating Sugar REALLY Have On Yeast Infections?
39 weeks pregnant on monistat for a yeast infection. Exactly how much does DIET effect the outcome of yeast infections? Can it really keep medicine from taking effect?
Best answer:
Answer by Doodlestuff
I read recently that for about 25% of people with chronic yeast infections, eliminating sugar and starch items in the diet is necessary to aid medicine in eliminating chronic, recurring yeast infections.

How long after starting an antibiotic does a yeast infection occur?
Question by Paintmyselfgreen: How long after starting an antibiotic does a yeast infection occur?
I just started an antibiotic on Saturday afternoon, and I began experiencing symptoms of a yeast infection on Sunday. I am curious as to if symptoms would appear this quickly?
Best answer:
Answer by Beery
It’s definitely possible. Yeast is always present, but the natural bacteria on the genitals normally keep it controlled. As soon as the antibiotic entered your system it started to kill bacteria and the yeast would have begun to get entrenched and ready to make a serious an assault on your body. If your diet at the time was high in sugars, the yeast would be well fed and able to start growing at a good rate.
A good way to keep yeast at bay during antibiotic use is to cut out all sugars. I don’t know why doctors don’t advise patients of this. Perhaps because they are all about pills and procedures and not thinking about unintended consequences of treatment and how diet can affect their prescriptions.

I am on my last day of treatment and I still have a yeast infection?
Question by Jessica D: I am on my last day of treatment and I still have a yeast infection?
I have been using the off brand Monistat 7 and tonight is my last dose but I still have a yeast infection. Can someone please tell me what the most effective way of treating a yeast infection is and how to prevent them? I am open to home remedies as well. Also, what causes yeast infections. I know antibiotics can because I get one every time I am on antibiotics but what else causes them?
Best answer:
Answer by Lisa
As you may already know, candida, the bacteria that causes yeast infections lives in the vagina. There is always a small amount of it but because the vagina itself is acidic with a Ph between 3-4 it is controlled, and doesnt bother at all. Ok, so you know about antibiotics, but any other factor (like soap, ovulation, condoms or any type of birth control ) that changes your vaginas Ph and makes it less acid is giving the candida a environment that is perfect for it to grow.
Now about the remedy, give the monistat some time to work, but I recommend you to take Some Apple cider vinegar dilute it in some fresh water and sit on that mixture, in a tub or in a bucket, allowing your legs to be just a little open. Believe me THIS WORKS.
Do it at often as you can 
Hope I helped!

How do you stop yeast infections from recurring?
Question by …Ms Independent…: How do you stop yeast infections from recurring?
I had a yeast infection in January. I went to the doctor because I wanted to take the pill instead of the cream which requires a prescription. Eventually it went away.
After awhile I notice right before my period I would itch only at the top of my vagina on the outer lip. I notice it was soar and saw what looked like little paper cuts. I went to the doctor and he said its normal for some women to get it right before their period.
I dont think this is normal and I wanna know if any women out there has had this problem and how did she handle it.

Answer by JannahLee
Hi – Well, your Dr is right, in a way. It is fairly common to have an occurrence of yeast infection before your period. You are going through hormonal changes and body changes that shift the flora of the vagina. A few things might help. No deodorant vaginal sprays, douches or kotex/tampons. Wear cotton underwear, Don’t wear a pad or shield all the time – it acts like a diaper holding moisture against your body. Use mild soaps that are not highly perfumed in the genital area. Don’t wear tight jeans all the time as that doesn’t allow air circulation. Sleep without underwear when you aren’t on your period. Try probiotics – or at least yogurt to help balance out your system – try to keep sugar under control in those days before your period.
The other thing you might want to be sure of is that it is yeast. There are other things that come and go and itch that should be ruled out. Good luck

Question by Mackenzie Wallace: How do I get rid of the yeast infection without a doctor?
Hi, I’m only 14 years old, and I think I might have the yeast infection in my vagina..I do NOT want to go to the doctor or tell anyone about it. I just want it to go away. Does anyone know how to get rid of it without drugs, creams, or powders or anything?! PLEASE HELP!
Best answer:
Answer by Mickey
Monistat- buy this at the store.
Wear cotton underwear and eat yogurt.
It may be beneficial to see a doctor if you get another yeast infection; they can prescribe an oral tablet that rids the infection.

Is glycerin a major factor in why personal lubricants and condoms would be giving me yeast infections?
Question by kiwi8: Is glycerin a major factor in why personal lubricants and condoms would be giving me yeast infections?
I (and my doctor) have ruled out many other factors that cause the “typical” yeast infection. Tight clothes, bathing suits, and etc. I also know it is a yeast infection and not something else. My immune system is not compromised and I am not on hormonal BC. Seeking solid knowledge that glycerin based products are causing this and others who may be sensitive to this as well. Thanks!
Great first answer!
2nd one is an advertisement!

Answer by Gracielacey
That could be the issue. When I was 20 or so, my boyfriend and I used condoms and we got yeast infections.. I am still not sure if it was the lube on teh condom that caused it or not, but I try to be careful and only use Trojans now.
It sounds like you have already explored this already…but my best friend and sister in law cannot wear anything other than cotton underwear (doesn’t matter if its thong or what we call “full butt” underwear) or they will get yeast infections.
Also I get them if I use any other tampons brands besides Tampax – don’t know why.
