Hi, Thank you so much for providing this service. Can you let me know if it is permissible to treat a yeast infection (by plunging medicine into the vagina) on Shabbos? It is a 7–day medication that I am supposed to take before I go to bed, to minimize leakage. Is it preferable for me to take the Friday night dose right before Shabbos begins, instead? Thank you.
Answer
It is permissible to insert the applicator and squeeze out the cream into the vagina on Shabbat.
Please feel free to get back to us with any further questions.
