Patient's question:
These days, while washing my underwear, I always find a lot of cheesy-looking discharge on them, and it smells very bad. I also feel like my private area is always damp and itchy, and my lower abdomen is uncomfortable. Could you please tell me: What causes candidiasis?Doctor's answer:
This disease is mostly caused by Candida infection, leading to conditions such as candidal vaginitis and cervical erosion. It is recommended that you use traditional Chinese medicine preparations to completely restore your immune system. Take one pill once a day, and continue for three menstrual cycles to prevent recurrence. Additionally, it is important to pay attention to dietary habits—avoid spicy and greasy foods, and consume more nutritious foods. Your diet should be based on lightness, and avoid high-sugar foods. Even after the self-healing of candidal vaginitis, it is still advisable to eat less. Also, pay attention to maintaining cleanliness. During treatment, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited. Change underwear daily and keep the external genital area clean and breathable.
