Hi, thank you for reaching out to us.

For your information, the medication you mentioned above is used to treat fungal and parasite and to be used topically only. However, we are unsure whether you may used it for your current pruritus or itching because we are unsure whether it is because of the recurrence of bacterial vaginosis as you mentioned or it is caused by other condition.

We strongly advise you to not simply use any medication without prescription by a doctor. You will have to see and examined by a doctor first before you can use the cream and you may discuss with the doctor regarding your current condition.

Seek help from a gynaecologist to lessen your worry regarding your itchiness around your private area.

If you have any further question, please contact us at (DoctorOnCall) to speak directly with our doctors regarding your issue. Thank you.
