Patient's question:
Patient Age: 31 (postpartum age)I have a yeast infection in the vagina, which hasn't been fully cured yet. These past few days, my vaginal discharge hasn't been good—there's a lot of white, thick discharge. I want to get pregnant next month, but I don't know what medicine to use to treat this now.
Duration of this outbreak and persistence: About 4-5 days
Current condition: Excessive white discharge, odorless.
How to deal with excessive and thick discharge from a yeast infection?
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Treating this condition is not difficult, but it requires thoroughness to prevent recurrence. It's important to change underwear frequently, and underwear should be boiled and exposed to sunlight. The most crucial points are:1. Adjust the vaginal pH value, which is conducive to the growth of Candida, by using a 2%-4% baking soda solution to rinse the external genitalia and vagina. A 10-day course is recommended.
2. Use antifungal agents, such as miconazole nitrate or nystatin suppositories, inserted into the vagina. A 10-14 day course is recommended.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
