Can you split a thrush pessary?

[user873]

Nervous about putting one in, don't like how large it is - is it still just as effective if it's done in two halves?

I'm sure you could split it & that it'll be just as effective, but I'd just shove the whole thing in - there's an applicator isn't there? You won't feel it once it's in.

Use it as advised. Not only will it be messy as it might result in too many crumbs so I can’t see how you can use the applicator effectively but it is dosed for active ingredients for a reason. Also the coating of the pessary would have its own role to keep it intact until it is in place.
Are we talking about a standard size Canesten size? It’s hardly scarily big. Use it just before you go to sleep.
Be a brave girl, do it, go to sleep and let it work.
It’s been well over 10 years since I had to use one, but it certainly didn’t look scary and I’m very squeamish about stuff (for example, references to sex toys and stuff like that make me feel sick, I would never contemplate anything down there apart from what nature intended and genuine medical reasons).
You’ll feel so much better once the pessary’s done it’s job.

It can’t be bigger than a penis, surely? Or a tampon if you’ve never had a penis up there?

Honestly just get it up there. Future you will thank present you I promise.
