Stupid question about thrush cream...

[pucca]

I think i am starting with thrush, i have been really ill with a vomiting bug so can't get out really.

Dh has the canesten cream for althletes foot, could i use this for now?

Thanks

If you can stomach it, you could always:
Garlic protocol:

? Break a clove off of a bulb of garlic and peel off the paper-like cover. Cut in half. Sew a string thru it for easy retrieval.

? Put a fresh half in your vagina in the evening before you go to sleep. Most women taste garlic in their mouths as soon as it is in their vagina, so it is less pleasant to treat while awake.

? In the morning, the garlic may come out when you poop. If not, many women find it is easiest to take it out on the toilet. Circle the vagina with a finger, till you find it. It cannot enter the uterus through the cervix. It cannot get lost, but it can get pushed into the pocket between the cervix and the vaginal wall.

? Most people will taste the garlic as long as it is in there. So if you still taste it, it is probably still in there. Most women have trouble getting it out the first time.

? For easy retrieval, sew a string through the middle of the clove before you put it in. You don't want to get irritated. Be gentle. Don't scratch yourself with long nails.

Ewwwwww! thanks but think i will pass on that, would rather go and buy some proper canesten.

You can use the AF treatment; it's 1% clotrimazole which is the same stuff as ordinary 1% Canesten.

It's not as good as the higher strength, single dose stuff, but it will help soothe you until you can get out and get something stronger.

Shitehawk... You are a life saver, thanks very much. I thought it would be ok, but just wanted to double check.
