Questions about Your First Yeast Infection to Ask Doctors

Take this list of questions about your first yeast infection the next time you visit the doctor.

What could be causing my vaginal yeast infection?
What kind of treatment do you recommend for the fastest relief?
If I do have a yeast infection, would a MONISTAT^® 1, 3 or 7 day treatment be more
appropriate for me?
Would I get faster relief from discomfort and irritation with an OTC (over-the-counter)
topical cream like MONISTAT^® or an oral prescription?
Will my treatment interact with any OTC or prescription medications I'm taking?
Once I start using a treatment, how long will it take before I feel relief?
How long before I'm cured of my yeast infection? What are my alternatives?
Do I have any health conditions that may increase my risk of contracting
a yeast infection?
If I get another yeast infection, is it all right to treat myself with
an OTC product such as MONISTAT^®, or do I need to call you first?
What should I tell my partner about my yeast infection?
