default
Posted on Fri, 24 Feb 2017
Question: I have a yeast infection as a result of taking antibiotics for a UTI. The infection seems to be subsiding after taking canesten 1 day treatment cream. Itching has subsided but i stilll have some vaginal spotting (this is only two days after the treatment). Is this normal?

Brief Answer:
This is normal. Nothing to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about yeast infection.

This is normal to have such spotting this early as infection would not have gone away completely.

If you have this even after a week you need to take extended course of canesten.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
