assume you are using the applicator it comes with and inserting it high enough and reasonably early at bedtime?If so then I'd think a bit of discharge normal the next morning.

If you find you are irritated by it more then perhaps you should request another appointment - it may be unrelated and require further investigation.

I had horrible reaction to it but I’m sensitive to a lot of topical treatments.

I had to stop using Ovestin cream as it gave me a hive type itchy rash on my leg. It took me a long time to work out this was the cause. Also I found the applicator quite sharp and sometimes scratched me internally. I now use Vagirux with no problems.
