Yeast Infection Ovule Help

Hi there,

I noticed I had a pretty bad yeast infection last week... I get them fairly often due to my birth control pill. Im 100% sure it's a yeast infection- very clumpy and white and itchy. Not much of a smell. I normally take an oral anti-fungal pill (fluconozol) and the yeast infection is usually gone the next day. I'm away on vacation right now and so I bought a one day ovule and used it last Thursday night. The itching and swelling and redness went down but I've had even more discharge than before. It's 4 days later and I have so much discharge! I thought maybe it was some of the ovule melting out- is that possible? Or perhaps it takes longer to clear up the infection? Or is it possible that the ovule wasn't strong enough and I should maybe use another one?

Thank you!

Hi there and welcome.


It is possible you are having increased discharge from the ovule or from your vagina expelling the products of your yeast infection.
