Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very concerned about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and sensitive to cold. How can fungal gynecological diseases be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, thank you for your inquiry. Based on the situation you described, the treatment for candidal vulvovaginitis is as follows:(1) General treatment: Actively treat other diseases that can lead to candidal vulvovaginitis and completely eliminate susceptible factors.
(2) Changing the vaginal pH: The optimal pH for Candida growth is 5.5. Therefore, using alkaline solutions to rinse the external genitalia and vagina can alter the vaginal pH, which will inhibit the growth and adaptation of Candida. A 2%–4% baking soda solution can be used to rinse the vagina once or twice daily, with 2 weeks constituting one course of treatment.
