Patient's question:
A 41-year-old woman doesn't know what's going on. She hasn't had sexual intercourse with her husband recently. She usually cleans her private parts and underwear, but suddenly she started experiencing itching in her private area and had yellow and excessive vaginal discharge. Please ask: What medications should be used for bacterial vaginosis?Doctor's answer:
Bacterial vaginosis should be treated with both topical and oral medications. Oral medication is for systemic treatment. It is important to consult a specialist at a formal hospital and follow the doctor's advice according to the prescribed course. Then, patients need to maintain a balanced diet, have regular sleep patterns, and regulate their physical and mental health. In daily life, it is important to keep a positive mood, eat more light, soft, and watery foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
