    This stuff is EVIL. I had the most horrible pain and itching after using. Within minutes, I wanted to die. Almost went to the ER. Couldn't wash it out fast enough. Endured horrible pain for hours. Was swollen for days. STAY AWAY.

    Insertion of this cream resulted in extraordinary discomfort for me, causing such itching and burning as could not be tolerated. I will never use this again! EVER!
