neo-penotran for yeast infection Posted: 06-24-08 04:04am
My OB told me that i have a yeast
infection because i have a very smelly
discharge and it has a little blood.. She
Recommended me to buy neo-penotran and
insert it to my vagina before bedtime for
a week..I just wonder if it really looks
like a gel ointment when i opened it.. I
was surprised because for all i know a
suppository should be a solid transprent
gel. I am
having a hardtime putting it inside my
vagina because its like an ointment.
Should i put it inside the refrigerator to
harden it? pls
help asap. thank you...

Did the medication come with any type of
applicator? Some yeast infection
medications come with an applicator that
you put the medication into, and then you
place the applicator into your vagina and
insert it almost like you would a tampon.
If not, it may be slightly more
complicated to put it in. Look on the
package and see if there are any
temperature guildlines (sometimes
medication cannot be really cold or hot or
it will become ineffective). If not,
placing it in there may help a bit.
A homeade remedy to treat yeast infections
is to use plain, sugarless yogurt. The
live cultures help to even out the pH and
sort things out. You can fill up an empty
tampon applicator with it and put it in
the freezer. It will fight the infection
and feel cool and soothing when you do it.
If both these methods fail you and seem to
be too tough, I would try buying another
brand of medication that comes with an
applicator or take oral medication to
treat it. Your doctor can prescribe you
the oral medication.
