Yeast infection...

Took monistat 1 day last night. But then started to wonder what other people experienced after taking it, when did you get relief, discharge changes, anything like that. I got the YI after reastarting my birth control, but my fiancé gets them quite a bit too (from his diabetes), so no sex for us. Oh and as most know when starting birth control you have to either use protection or  not have sex so we haven't had sex in 8 days and we won't for another 6 or 7. This will be the longest we've went without sex (we were active ttc for 8months so sex every two days for the most part). Any further advice for me (or for him) would be greatly appreciated.
