 [ Symptoms ] can i use triamcinolon cream for a yeast infection [ Disease ] no this is a steroid cream you need an anti yeast medication available over the counter at the pharmacy while mild steroids like hydrocortisone can help itching this steroid is a bit too strong for this sensitive area and can actually make a yeast infection worse so get the proper medication like monistat or a store brand generic equivalent your pharmacist can help you select one
