    period to start one day before exam...ok to go

    I've been diagnosed with a severe yeast infection. My doctor want's me to come back in 1 week to see how the medication is helping it. Problem is it's the day before my period is to start. Is that ok? I really don't want to have to wait until after my period because I don't want to wait 1 1/2 weeks to see if the medicine worked or not.

    Depends on the Dr. If I'm on my period, when I have my annual, they will reschedule. I've started during the course of being treated for a UTI and they've rescheduled the follow up. If you do start, call them and see if they want to see you still.

      Somtimes it is just to talk to you about it. He might not need to see you down there. If you do start, give them a call and ask the receptionist if she thinks that he still needs to see you considering the cirscumstances.
