Patient's question:
Female, recently she has found that her private area is always itchy and feels hot, as if it were on fire. Is this a sign of inflammation? Please ask: How can trichomoniasis vulvitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Trichomoniasis is prone to recurring, making it crucial to eliminate the root cause. It is recommended to pay attention to hygiene regularly, use local and systemic medications under the guidance of a doctor, and ensure thorough examination to confirm the absence of trichomonads before completing a course of treatment. Subsequent follow-up tests should be conducted after each menstrual period. The condition is considered cured only if the vaginal discharge tests negative for three consecutive menstrual cycles. It is advisable for unmarried couples to undergo treatment simultaneously. For severe gynecological conditions, immediate medical consultation is recommended. Follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment and avoid blindly relying on advertisements or over-the-counter medications, as this may worsen the condition. Thank you.
