How to treat candidal vulvovaginitis well. Is this disease serious? How to (root) it? What methods can solve it? It has been troubling me for a long time, and I feel uncomfortable mentally. I seek a solution.

Doctor's answer:

Candidal vulvovaginitis can be treated initially by applying or scrubbing the affected area with a 0.1% solution of povidone-iodine, followed by using creams or ointments containing imidazole drugs. Oral nystatin is also effective. Pay attention to keeping socks and underwear separate when washing, and boil underwear that has been worn. Then expose them to sunlight.
