Yeast Infection treatment and Spotting

My recent pap test showed that I had a yeast infection, for which my doctor suggested I use an over the counter treatment. I picked up Monistat 7, and experienced no problems, until after the fourth day on the treatment, when I noticed spotting. I am on the Pill, and have never experienced spotting or an off-schedule period before. Is this a common side effect of a yeast infection treatment, or should I see a doctor?
