A member asked:

Im pregnant, have yeast infection. my gyn told me to take monistat cream, however, i found monistat 1 combo (vaginal ovule, cream), is it safe?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: The ovule has the same amount of medication without diluting it with inert cream and is intended for vaginal insert and the cream in that product is for external application. It is safe to use during pregnancy and is very effective.
