Patient's question:
Candida vulvovaginitis. How to treat candidal vaginitis detected in white discharge. I will never insert medication into the vagina. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Candidiasis vulvovaginitis is caused by Candida, which is a single-celled fungus present in the skin, mucous membranes, and vagina of healthy individuals. Treatment involves altering the vaginal pH, using alkaline solutions to rinse the external genitalia and vagina, thereby altering the vaginal pH and inhibiting the growth of Candida. During the onset and treatment of candidiasis vulvovaginitis, sexual activity should be avoided, and the external genitalia should be kept clean and dry to prevent scratching. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited during treatment. Spicy and irritating foods should be avoided. There are many treatment methods for candidiasis vulvovaginitis, but since symptoms vary among patients, the diagnostic approach also differs. Therefore, patients need to be diagnosed promptly to receive appropriate treatment.
