How to treat vulvar itching at seven months of pregnancy

Patient's question:

Hello, doctor, I have been experiencing abnormal vaginal discharge and external itching recently. How should I treat external itching at seven months of pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you are 7 months pregnant, experiencing itching in the external genital area, which is suspected to be vaginitis. If vaginitis is not treated promptly, it may lead to premature rupture of membranes, chorioamnionitis, or cause preterm labor. It is recommended to check your blood sugar levels to ensure they are normal, as high blood sugar can also cause candidal vaginitis. In daily life, patients should maintain a balanced nutritional intake, engage in aerobic exercises to exercise their bodies, and keep a cheerful mood to enhance their physical fitness and accelerate the recovery process.
