I am a 51 year old, my Dr said i am not in menopause. However I do have m oddness and hot flashes often, and insomnia. My issue is that I have a period every couple.of months. But a few times before I start my menstrual cycle I fI have burning itching and soreness and clear discharge, so I assume it a yeast infection, so I use monostat . When I apply the suppository it's painful like needles. The next day I'm swollen ,reddnes, sore and beginning cycle. Also painful. Is this normal.
