Patient's question:
I have been experiencing intense itching in my vagina every morning recently, but it improves by noon. I had a routine vaginal discharge test done at the hospital, and the doctor said everything was normal. However, why is it still itchy? Also, what causes mold to cause granulation?Doctor's answer:
The typical symptoms of candidal vulvovaginitis are cottage cheese-like vaginal discharge, accompanied by external genital itching. If a white discharge test has already been conducted and it has been confirmed that it is candidal vulvovaginitis, targeted medications can be used for treatment under the guidance of a doctor. If granulations have formed due to vaginal inflammation, these symptoms will gradually subside after the inflammation subsides. In this case, it is likely that the granulations will improve on their own once the candidiasis is resolved. Rest and a balanced diet are important. Avoid spicy foods.
