Canesten Pessary with Applicator Safe for Thrush?

Hi all, I'm currently 15 weeks pregnant and have been having yellow-green discharge on and off for the past 2 weeks. A swab test indicated I have thrush. On my GP's recommendation, I used the Canesten pessary with the applicator. However, since then I've read that 1) the applicator is not recommended during pregnancy and 2) there are mixed reviews for Canesten pessaries during pregnancy altogether.
Has anyone had experience using Canesten pessaries during pregnancy? Any advice?

You sometimes need a course of pessaries for thrush in pregnancy. Use your fingers to insert them
