Patient's question:
Last month during my period, I had bloating in my stomach and itchy sensation down there, which felt abnormal. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said it was necessary to wait until after my period to conduct the examination. Yesterday, when I went to the hospital again for a check-up, it was said that there was a mold infection. Why would this cause a mold infection?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, when women exhibit symptoms of actinomycosis infection, it is mostly caused by a weakened immune system leading to fungal infection. In such cases, it is recommended to seek early medical examination at a hospital. Under the guidance of a doctor, medication should be taken orally or applied externally for treatment. This condition typically requires a course of treatment. Usually, three months are sufficient to achieve the goal of recovery.In daily life, women should change their underwear and pants frequently. When washing, they should be boiled in hot water and then exposed to sunlight for drying. It is best for both partners to undergo treatment together for better results.
