I was given medication for a yeast infection. I started it yesterday night and now I have my period!?

Can I still use my medication? Or should I wait for the period to finish (usually 4-5 days) and then start the medication?

P.S. Its a vaginal medication (I have to insert it)

Yes, you should still use your medication.

However, you should avoid using tampons. A tampon may absorb the medication, decreasing its effectiveness.

Be aware that this medication can also cause condoms to break, so avoid using condoms for birth control.

Take the meds anyway.

Still use the meds.
