What Are the Main Symptoms of Vaginal Thrush?

  • Itching
  • Swelling
  • Redness
  • Unusual discharge
  • Burning sensation
  • Soreness

Thrush has no odour, as it does not usually change the pH level.

Thrush is not an STI and is a very common condition for women, with around 75% of women geteting thrush at some time in their lives. The good news is thrush is easily treated at home and symptoms start to ease after the first use.

If you also have external symptoms such as itching or burning sensations, then a combination treatment such as Canesten Thrush Combi will be more suitable.

How To Use

The Pessary

The applicator should be used to insert the pessary as high as possible into the vagina, preferably before going to sleep at night for convenient and comfortable treatment.

Wash your hands before removing the foil from the blister pack and again afterwards when you have used the applicator.

1. Remove the applicator from the packaging. Pull out the plunger A until it stops. Remove the pessary from the foil blister pack and place firmly into the applicator B.

  

2. To fit the pessary into the applicator, the holder of the applicator needs to be squeezed lightly at both sides. The pessary fits tightly into the applicator and needs to be squeezed into the holder to about 1cm.

3. Carefully put the applicator as deep as is comfortable into the vagina (this is easiest when lying on your back with your knees bent up). Holding the applicator in place, slowly press the plunger until it stops so that the pessary is deposited into the vagina.
