What are the common clinical symptoms of candidal vaginitis?

Patient's question:

Patient is female, recently always feels discomfort in the lower body, especially during her period. Is it possible to have candidal vulvovaginitis? What are the common clinical symptoms?

Doctor's answer:

Vaginitis is a common gynecological disease, and trichomoniasis is one of the more stubborn types among them. After contracting the disease, patients may experience intense itching in the private area, restlessness, abnormal vaginal discharge, painful intercourse, frequent urination, and urgency, causing great distress. Since Trichomonas vaginalis can be transmitted through sexual contact between partners, it is advisable to treat trichomoniasis in both partners. Trichomoniasis and fungal vaginitis can also be transmitted between couples. Therefore, if a woman is diagnosed with the condition, her male partner should also undergo medical examination, diagnosis, and treatment. Some men, even if not infected, may be healthy carriers of the bacteria and should also be treated.
