What is a vaginal yeast infection?
A vaginal yeast infection is a common condition caused by an overgrowth of yeast (Candida) that may normally live in the vagina. Your doctor may call this infection “monilia” or “candidiasis”. Some women may have a yeast infection on the skin outside the vagina (vulva) at the same time they have a vaginal infection.

Do I need a prescription for FemiClear Yeast Infection?
Nope! FemiClear Yeast Infection is over-the-counter, so it’s always there when you need it. See your doctor if this is the first time you have vaginal itching and discomfort to find out if you have a yeast infection.

Can I use FemiClear Yeast Infection while on my period?
Sure, FemiClear Yeast Infection can be used during your period. In fact, menstrual cycles typically play a factor in the overgrowth of yeast, leading to an infection. But we recommend you don’t insert a tampon or cup while using FemiClear Yeast Infection, as it may remove or displace some of the ointment.

What time of day should I use FemiClear Yeast Infection?
We recommend using FemiClear Yeast Infection at night, before bed, as the risk of product leakage is minimized while lying down.

If you are pregnant and believe you have a yeast infection, consult a healthcare professional before using an at-home treatment.

Will I experience any side effects while using FemiClear Yeast Infection?
A burning sensation may occur with use of FemiClear Yeast Infection. If you’ve had a severe or prolonged infection, you may experience a more intense burning sensation. Stop using FemiClear and consult your healthcare professional if you have abdominal pain, a headache, hives, a skin rash, or if you experience severe vaginal burning, itching, irritation, or swelling.

What If I’m still experiencing symptoms after 2 days?
FemiClear is a 2 day dose yeast infection product. Use FemiClear for 2 nights in a row; if symptoms do not improve in 3 days, ask your doctor. According to the CDC and the Mayo Clinic, the general consensus in the scientific community is that most yeast infections take between three and seven days for all symptoms to fully resolve and the infection to be eliminated.**

Can I stop using FemiClear Yeast Infection if my symptoms clear up before the second day?
No, we don’t recommend that! To fully take care of a yeast infection, we advise completing treatment.

Can I use a condom while treating my vaginal yeast infection?
Don’t have sex while using FemiClear Yeast Infection. Using other vaginal products such as tampons, douches, spermicides, etc. while using FemiClear Yeast Infection is also not advised. FemiClear Yeast Infection may damage condoms and diaphragms, leaving you at risk for pregnancy and STIs.

When can I resume sexual activity after using FemiClear Yeast Infection?
You can resume having sex after 7 days, if your symptoms are gone.

How can I help prevent repeated vaginal yeast infections?
Yeast infections aren’t fun! To lower your chances of getting another one:
● Talk with your doctor about any drugs you are now taking. You are more likely to get a vaginal yeast infection if you are taking certain drugs, including antibiotics, steroids, or birth control pills.
● Try to keep the genital area cool and dry. Yeast grows well in warm, moist areas.
● The following tips may help:
● Wear cotton underwear and loose-fitting clothes.
● Change out of damp clothes or a wet bathing suit as soon as possible.
● If you use panty liners or pads when you are not having a menstrual period, change the panty liners or pads often.

Why do women get repeated vaginal yeast infections?
Some of the causes of repeated yeast infections:
● Hormonal changes occurring a few days before your monthly period
● Use of antibiotics or some birth control pills
● Pregnancy
● Diabetes
● Wearing many tight layers or moist clothing “down there”
● Weakened immune system

How can I tell if I have a vaginal yeast infection?
You may have one or more of the following symptoms:
● Vaginal itching, soreness, irritation or burning
● Discharge that may be thick, white, and lumpy like cottage cheese
● Rash or redness on the skin outside the vagina (vulva)
● Burning on urination
● Painful vaginal intercourse (sex)

Note: Vaginal yeast infections do not cause fever, abdominal pain, or a foul-smelling vaginal discharge. If you have these symptoms, you should call your doctor right away.

What causes yeast infections?
Many things can change the balance of yeast organisms normally present in the vagina.
Here are some common triggers for yeast infections:
● Changes in hormone levels during menstruation
● Increased estrogen levels, sometimes caused by birth control pills or hormone therapy
● Pregnancy
● Antibiotics, which kill healthy, yeast-preventing bacteria in the vagina
● Diabetes, both controlled and uncontrolled
● Cancer treatments like chemotherapy
● Impaired immune system, sometimes caused by corticosteroid therapy or HIV infections

Importantly, sexual activity is NOT a trigger for yeast infections, though it is a risk factor for other vaginal infections, such as BV and Trichomoniasis.

Most yeast infections result from a type of Candida fungus known as Candida albicans, which is generally responsive to standard treatments. However, other strains do exist that are more resistant to common treatment options. If you experience any problems treating or curing your yeast infection, consult a healthcare professional.
