Is it OK to use canesten cream down there if you don't actually have thrush?

Question

I am *slightly* itchy down there...every few hours. Very mild and not uncomfortable. Probably not thrush or if it is, its an extremely mild case but I have some canesten cream and wondering if it can do any harm to use it if I don't actually have thrush.

Answer 2

Go to your drug store and pick up some vagisil or something else. They have stuff for itchiness.

It shouldn't do you any harm to use it but it is an anti fungal cream maybe you should get some lanacane especially for female itching

Or you could have a bath in tea tree oil as it's anti fungal and anti bacterial.
