What should be avoided for patients with fungal vulvitis?

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 coldness. What are the taboos for patients with candidal vulvitis?

Doctor's answer:

Treatment of fungal infections in general: Locally, baking soda solution can be used to clean the affected area, or imidazole creams such as miconazole cream or clotrimazole cream can be applied externally. Oral griseofulvin at a dose of 100,000 to 200,000 units twice daily, or itraconazole 100 mg twice daily for 7 consecutive days. Maintain good hygiene, strictly prohibit sexual activity during treatment, and pay attention to the cleanliness of the external genital area. Do not use soap to clean the external genital area; try to control scratching and rubbing the affected area; avoid spicy foods; and pay attention to preventing emotional fluctuations.
There are many treatment methods for fungal vulvitis, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment methods adopted will also differ. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment once symptoms are noticed.
