Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Thrush

Hi, I am 32 weeks pregnant. I just saw a doctor for my thrush today ( this is the first time I have vagina thrush) and I am suggested to use Clotrimazole 6 day cream with an instruction to insert deeply into vagina. Please advice me if it is safe to do so?

HI,
Welcome to HCM,
I read your query and i appreciate your concern regarding this issue.
There are no known side effects of use of Clotrimazole vaginal cream on fetus or pregnancy.
You can use it safely.
I would advise you to use it as prescribed by your doctor as it is best for the treatment of Vaginal thrush which is more common during pregnancy.

Hope so it will be helpful.
