Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. If I have vulvitis, what treatment would be more appropriate? I want to get better as soon as possible.Doctor's answer:
The main causes of vulvitis are generally infectious. Menstrual blood seepage during periods, poor ventilation of underwear, vaginal moisture, sanitary pad allergies, and continuously increasing vaginal discharge can all lead to vulvitis. You can use boiled prickly ash water to steam clean the area every night for 20 minutes. Most mild cases can heal on their own. It is advisable to keep the vulva dry at all times and change underwear frequently. If necessary, you can take medications like metronidazole for symptomatic treatment. There are many treatment methods for vulvitis, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach will differ. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
