[|Human|] can I use monistat in the anal area?   I have a yeast infection,  I do not know how I got it,  I am having no sex for years, none whatsoever.   I have had an unusual  amount of sugar and drink the last week or so,  celebrating my birthday,  but this is very strange,  it is only in this area.
[|AI|]  HiT hank you for asking ChatDoctorI have gone through your query. Yeast infection can occur due to constant accumulation of sweat and greasy environment. Dysbacteriosis also can cause this. Taking kefir or yogurt is good for this. You can use monist at which is available over the counter. You should use this for 1 to 2 weeks to get proper effect. If you stop after 2 or 3 days fungus can recur. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the genital area, and instead you can use saline or warm water. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything is not clear. Thanks.
