I started using Canesten treatment (cream that I apply). I started on Monday and my period began. Should I continue the treatment?

Yes, you can continue using the Canesten treatment even during your period. If applying the cream is inconvenient, you can try taking a fluconazole tablet instead. This tablet is available over the counter at the pharmacy and may take up to 3 days to fully take effect. You can also continue using the local cream for relief if needed.
