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. How did I get candidiasis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this condition should be considered as a case of candidal vulvovaginitis. Candidal vulvovaginitis is caused by an infection with the bloodstream pathogen Candida albicans. It tends to recur in women who have long-term use of hormones, antibiotics, diabetes, or are pregnant. The main routes of infection are through masturbation, public baths, towels, etc. The main symptoms include cottage cheese-like vaginal discharge and external genital itching. Oral medication can be taken under the guidance of a local doctor, or nystatin suppositories can be inserted into the vagina for treatment. During the treatment period, sexual activity should be avoided, underwear should be changed frequently, and hygiene items should be boiled to sterilize them. In addition to medication for treating candidal vulvovaginitis, patients also need to pay attention to dietary aspects, such as eating a balanced diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a regular hospital for treatment to ensure a good therapeutic effect.
