Does monistat work?

I have a bad yeast infection right now and It is so painful and uncomfortable. It’s Saturday, so I can’t call up my gynecologist for a prescription of diflucan until Monday... I can’t wait that longs... last time I took monistat, years ago, it burned so bad.. so I’m scared to take it, but if it works I’m willing to try.

Does it actually get rid of the infection?? And which one is best?

My husband and I are trying to conceive and my fertile week starts in 3 days.. I need to get rid of this!
