Since this cream was prescribed by your own doctor after examining you, it's meant specifically for your situation and stage of pregnancy.
Next Steps
Please confirm directly with your prescribing doctor if you have doubts, they know your full history and scan details.
Health Tips
Vaginal itching and discharge in pregnancy should always be tracked with your doctor rather than managed on your own.
