my gyno told me that to help with the itching and burning while waiting for the diflucan to work to stick a tampon in PLAIN yogurt and use it like when you have your period...the (?) acidolpholus (sp?) in the yogurt is supposed to fight with the yeast infection. i am allergic to monistat and over the counter meds so diflucan is the only way to go for me...i've had to take multiple doses too....girl sometimes it itched so bad i felt like sticking a damn scrubby brush up there just to make the itch go away

good luck!!!
