Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can early-stage candidal vulvitis be treated and improved?Doctor's answer:
As you mentioned, in this case, a sodium bicarbonate solution can be used to clean the affected area, and local medications such as nystatin tablets or miconazole suppositories can be applied for treatment. It is recommended to change new sterile underwear daily while undergoing medication. Additionally, three months of gynecological examinations and microscopic tests of vaginal discharge showing no abnormalities are required to confirm full recovery. If the individual is unmarried, both partners should be treated together. There are several treatment methods for candidal vulvitis, but since the patient's condition varies, the diagnostic approach may differ. Therefore, it is necessary for the patient to seek a prompt diagnosis to receive appropriate treatment.
