Patient's question:
These days, when I wash my underwear, I always find a lot of cheesy-looking discharge on them, and it smells very bad. I also feel that my private area is always damp and a bit itchy, and my lower abdomen feels uncomfortable. Please ask: How can bacterial vaginosis be treated to improve?Doctor's answer:
Treatment for bacterial vaginosis is recommended as follows:1. Vaginal irrigation with vinegar and acidic solutions can be performed irregularly to stabilize symptoms and help control the condition. Alternatively, metronidazole suppositories can be inserted into the vagina, one suppository per night, for a total of one week.
2. Metronidazole: The dosage is 0.2–0.4 grams per time, taken 2–3 times daily.
Please also pay attention to the following points:
1. Maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia at all times.
2. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited during treatment.
3. Maintain a light diet and avoid spicy and greasy foods.
For gynecological patients, in addition to taking medication as prescribed, folk remedies can be used as supplementary treatment in daily life. Proper dietary habits should be maintained to avoid irritating foods.
