A member asked:
I tried to insert a pessary for thrush but couldnt get it to go in, can i try again tonight with the same pessary?

Other options: If you are having trouble inserting a pessary then consider an over the counter yeast cream. These come with an applicator and may be easier for you to place it. Your doctor can also call in an oral medication for yeast.
