A member asked:
Does yeast infection medication (cream inserted vaginally) kill sperm? ie tercanzole. or at least make conditions unfavorable?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not spermicidal: It does kill sperm but may act as a partial barrier. Do not depend on it to prevent pregnancy. All the best.
