Could I have just hurt my unborn child by taking Monistat 1 without know for sure I have a yeast infection?

   Hello, im embarrassed to post this. I recently took and pregnancy test that can test up to five days early. There was a very faint red line. I figured it was to early to be sure. Last night I took a monistat 1 insert, due to feeling stinging in the vaginal area. I was not even thinking it could hurt my child (If I am Preggers), all that was in my mind was cleaning it out. About thirty min after the insert I got thinking about it. I began to fear what can happen since I took this without knowing for sure I have a yeast infection. When I was pregnant before I had one and my doctor said I get get over the counter medication. I tried to look it up on-line on the effects however I could not find much info. I saw on Yahoo a gal posted a question on if you could still be pregnant after the insert of Monistat 1. She didn't have many answers, One answer said that it will get in your blood stream and hurt the fetus.
   Could I have just hurt the wellbeing of my child? Im really stressing, If am am pregnant I don't want to hurt my child and fear I just have.

Thank you two so much for taking the time to write back. It has really helped me feel better. Once I find out for sure I will consult with my doctor once I choose one. Thanks again

I had a yeast infection a few weeks back and took monistat 7 day treatment. It was recommended by my doctor. It is safe to use and in the future talk to your doctor. You should be fine. Also I was still in my first trimester when I took it.

I looked it up for you and this is the best I could find:
Pregnancy—Studies have not been done in humans for use of all azole antifungals during the first trimester of pregnancy. These medicines are safe and effective when used for at least 7 days during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. However, check with your doctor before using this medicine during the first trimester of pregnancy. Also, use of 1- and 3-day treatments may not be effective during pregnancy.

There is another website that states certain drugs that are safe to use during pregnancy. They include Monistat 3 I guess.

Try to take a digital test to get a better result or get a test done at ur doctors. Mention that you used the monistat and always ask before you take anything for the next time.
Good luck... I don't think there are many false positives so you probably are preggers!! ;)
