If you are using it twice a day, you will need to reuse the applicators (wash them in warm soapy water between uses). If you are using vaginal gel just once a day, you will have enough applicators and can simply throw them away after use.

Never re use the applicator hun , is it for one dose or several doses , if several doses there should be more then one applicator , if only one dose only use it one time and throw it away . I reccomend doing it before bed so none comes out and wear pantys you don't mind maybe getting stained some will come out at night .

Relax while lying on your back with your knees bent (or in any position that you feel comfortable).Hold the full applicator in one hand. Insert it slowly into the vagina. Stop before it becomes uncomfortable.Slowly press the plunger until it stops.Withdraw the applicator. The medicine will be left behind in the vagina.

Its a vaginal cream if there's an infection putting it on the lips will not treat it.  Call your doctor he will tell you its safe and tell you what to do . It wouldn't of been proscribed if bad for baby .

No Don't put it on your finger . You can cause infection . Worse . The tube is there to make sure it all goes in and goes as far up into the vaginal cavity it can to help you , the tube is safe once you take it out of the wrapper simply attach it to the tube applicator squeeze the medicine into the plastic applicator and insert it into your vagina all the way , you'll know when its all the way in . Directions are in the box usually . Don't walk around after cream is in you try to lay down preventing it from all coming out . Fill the tube to how much it takes .

I was told not to use the applicator and just put the cream on the outside (well in the lips but not in the vagina itself)
