An ideal and convenient combination for treating thrush both internally and externally.
Thrush (vulvovaginal candidiasis) is a common fungal infection of the vulva and vagina that affects most women at some time in their lives.
Thrush is caused by yeast called candida which normally lives harmlessly in the vagina without you even noticing it. Normally, there is a delicate balance between bacteria and yeasts that live naturally within the vagina. However, the natural pH balance of the vagina that keeps candida under control can be upset by many factors. If the natural pH balance is altered, the level of yeast increases and can develop into a thrush infection.
Thrush affects women of all ages but is most common in women aged between 25-35, pregnant women and menopausal women.
The Canesten 500mg Pessary works right at the site of the infection and clears the internal candida in just one application. The 10g tube of double strength Clotrimazole cream * provides immediate relief of the external itching and soreness. The cream should be used two or three times a day until the symptoms disappear. The cream can also be used to treat your partner to prevent reoccurrence.
