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'm also extremely sensitive to cold and cold drafts. Could you please tell me how to handle symptoms of candidiasis and trichomoniasis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis is clinically characterized by changes in the nature of vaginal discharge, external genital itching, burning pain, and abnormal odor. Dyspareunia is also common. When the urethra is affected, symptoms such as dysuria and urinary urgency may occur. Common types of vaginitis include bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis, candidiasis, and atrophic vaginitis. Vaginal discharge culture is used to identify the specific pathogen, serving as a key basis for accurate diagnosis. Treatment typically involves antibiotics targeting the cause, combined with topical suppositories and washes. Active treatment can alleviate and eliminate susceptible factors.
