    Default whats the difference?

    UGH never have sex in a pool...it will mess up al the pretty balance down there. Anyways my question is what is better for yeast infection treatment: Tioconazole or Miconazole? They are I guess the same thing they both treat yeast infections but which one is better...and I have one more:Since we've all had one at one time or another and there is no symptoms other than the abnormal discharge you get from getting yeast would it be better to take a one day treatment instead of the 3 or 7 day treatments?

    Please answer genuinely..this sucks

    I've never had one (knock on wood) but yikes!! Chlorine is VERY drying so I've always steared clear of pools!

    Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!

    If you're not sure if it's a yeast infection or not, there are two good natural remedies that I use (and they won't ruin the balance that using a yeast infection med would if it's not TRULY an infection). The first and stronger of the two is to peel a clove of garlic making sure not to break the skin of it (the juice will burn) wrap it in cheesecloth, tye a string around it and shove it up there. Keep it there for about 4 hours (or even sleep with it in for and then take it out. You might smell garlicy while it's in there, but I find it's kind of funny to have your own little "secret" goin' on down there. The other is to take some plain yogurt and either put it in a syringe (w/out a needle!!) and shoot it up there, or to freeze some plain yogurt in the fingers of a glove, then take out the little yogurt popsicle and stick it up there. It feels cold, but helps with the itching.

    The only over the counter I've tried was a one day treatment, and this worked well, but it made me all greasy and slippery-gross feeling down there. I like the garlic.

    Oh and as for your other question- I've read that three or seven day treatments have better effectiveness rates. Sometimes if all you buy is a one day treatment you end up having to purchase several to get rid of the infection.

    I always take the 7 day treatment when needed

    Yogurt is very good for this sort of thing too. eat yogurt everyday until this goes away.

    as for what product...read the container as to what symptons they take care of and buy the one that kills your symptons.

    Hope this helps.

    Yes, I will also suggest 3 or 7 day treatments. And the cream that comes with it, you know, the one to stop the itching - DOESN'T WORK!!!!!

    I would vote for the longer treatments too.. they just seem to work better. These days, tho, I had my Doc call in a standing Rx for the yeast infection pill so I can just grab it and be done with it. That might be something to do in the future even tho it is a bit harsh.

    I had a nasty one that hubby and I kept passing back and forth. I tried the one day treatment....Did NOT work and was messy. If you are for sure it's a yeast infection and not a bacterial infection (they are similar) I would call your gyno and see if they will prescribe difulcan (or something) If not, go with the 3 day treatment that comes with the external itching cream. It worked wonders for me. Oh, and use it at night like the instructions say...if not, it kind of leaks out. I just got the walmart brand equivilant. Wear cotton undies for a few days...keep it dry down there. They are such a pain...hope you feel better soon.

    p.s the one day treatment may work for some people, but my doc said that even with the 1 day , it will take about 3 days to completely go away. She said the 3 day is better for most people because you are treating it all 3 days that it's hanging on anyways. The one day is just one dose, but it won't go away in one day anyways....just an FYI
