Patient's question:
The leukorrhea is slightly yellow and has a cheese-like texture. The pubic hair sometimes itches. Regarding the past treatment and its effectiveness in the recent period: no treatment has been administered. What medication can I use? I sometimes use a gynecological wash solution and would like to ask what medication to use. Can I use metronidazole suppositories?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it is considered to be a fungal vaginal inflammation, and symptomatic treatment is required. Recommendation: For fungal vaginal inflammation, use alkaline solutions such as 2~4% sodium bicarbonate or soapy water to clean the external genitalia and vagina. This helps change the vaginal pH, making it more favorable for fungal growth. After cleaning, insert nystatin tablets or suppositories into the vagina. Vaginal inflammation is an easily occurring gynecological disease. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
