General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello.

You need to abstain from all forms of sexual contact and/or masturbation for at least 2 weeks after the last dose of application of the vaginal cream or the oral tablet. As you are still on the cream it is not advisable to indulge in sexual intercourse right now.

Best wishes
