Patient's question:
Friend recently found that the discharge is quite dirty and quite abundant, but there is no itching or pain. Examination revealed that they have become ill. They want to consult on how to treat candidal vulvovaginitis well.Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis, first use an alkaline solution, sodium bicarbonate or soapy water to clean the external genitalia and vagina, altering the vaginal pH to favor the growth of fungi. After cleaning, inserting nystatin tablets or suppositories into the vagina can be more effective. For stubborn cases, oral itraconazole or clotrimazole can be taken to eliminate intestinal candidiasis, or topical miconazole can be used. During treatment, sexual intercourse is prohibited, and underwear should be changed daily, washed, and boiled to sterilize. Fungal tests must be negative, and retesting for fungi must be negative after each menstrual cycle. Continuous and stable treatment for three courses is considered cured.
