How to treat vaginitis effectively?

Patient's question:

When giving birth, the doctor said I had vaginitis and prescribed medication, but the effect was not significant. Now, I have yellow discharge and sometimes lower abdominal pain. My baby is eight months old, and I haven't had my period yet.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, first of all, regarding the issue of vaginitis, if there is still abnormal vaginal discharge now, you should go to the hospital for a thorough check of the vaginal discharge routine test, and then take medication according to the type of infection. Additionally, regarding the lack of menstruation, if you are breastfeeding, it is possible to experience secondary physiological amenorrhea. However, it is essential to rule out the possibility of pregnancy. For those who are not breastfeeding, if the baby is eight months old and menstruation has not returned, it is necessary to conduct a thorough examination and address the issue.
In addition, during the treatment of vaginitis, in addition to symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary impacts on the recovery of vaginitis.
