Patient's question:
Friend recently found that the discharge is quite dirty and abundant, but there is no itching or pain. Examination revealed that the condition has developed, and they want to consult about the common treatments for candidal vulvovaginitis.Doctor's answer:
The treatment for candidal vulvovaginitis includes:1. Using baking soda water to rinse the vagina, once or twice daily, with a 2-week course. After rinsing, dry the external genitalia and maintain them dry to inhibit the growth of Candida.
2. After rinsing, insert nystatin tablets deep into the vagina, once nightly, with 50,000–100,000 units per dose, for a 7–10-day course. Alternatively, apply miconazole cream to the external genitalia simultaneously.
3. Oral medication: Since fungal infections can be transmitted between partners through sexual activity, oral medication can be administered to both individuals for treatment. Oral medication can also inhibit intestinal Candida. Fluconazole oral: 150 mg once daily.
4. Maintain good hygiene habits.
