Hello, Welcome to HCM, If you are having fungal infection you need to take antifungal drugs, gynazole is a vaginal cream indicated for the local treatment of candidiasis.
The recommended dose is one applicator full of cream intravaginally. As you have not mentioned where is the fungal infection, site of infection is very important in prescribing the treatment. If there is a vaginal fungal inflection you can use this drug.
Otherwise you need to take oral antifungal drugs like Flucan, dose and schedule depends upon the site of infection.I would suggest you to consult your doctor for physical examination to find out the site and get proper treatment for the same. Thank you.
