I used canesten multiple times with my last pregnancy. You can use the cream but not the oral tablet according to my midwife.

I was prescribed the pessary a few times during my pregnancies, also the cream. The pessary is safe but you can't use the applicator in pregnancy.

I've been using both. My doc said candesten is absolutely fine. I haven't asked about vagisil.
