Patient's question:
Every time I have a sexual encounter, I don't feel any pleasure at all. Moreover, last Sunday, after a thorough examination at the hospital, I was told that I had developed vaginitis, cervical inflammation, and cervical erosion. Currently, I am also taking medication prescribed by the doctor for treatment. I take Azithromycin, Gongyanping, and Fei'ershuang topical capsules every day. After taking these medications for a week, they are now finished. Sometimes my lower limbs still itch, and I would like to take another week's worth. However, when I went to the pharmacy, I couldn't find the medications prescribed by the doctor. Can I take other branded medications with the same name? Are there any differences in efficacy? Can I still take the medication during my menstrual period? Thank you! Can I take other branded medications with the same name? Are there any differences in efficacy?

Hello, the main symptom of chronic cervical inflammation is an increase in abnormal vaginal discharge, which can be creamy, mucous-like, pale yellow purulent, or bloody. The amount, color, odor, and consistency of the discharge are related to the pathogenic bacteria and the degree of inflammation.If the inflammation spreads downward to the pelvic cavity, patients may experience symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, dysmenorrhea, and pain in the waist and sacral region. It is not advisable to take anti-inflammatory drugs for a long time, as this can lead to drug resistance and dysbiosis, potentially causing more severe infections. It is recommended to adopt a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine for treatment, as this will not cause drug resistance and will yield better results.
Recommended traditional Chinese medicine: Gynecological Tablets (Capsules). Generally, 3–4 courses of treatment are recommended, with 2–3 courses for milder conditions. Each course lasts 14 days.
