Patient's question:
How to treat vaginal infections in elderly women, is the effect of using vaginal douching better than taking medication?Doctor's answer:
Ladies, I strongly agree with your feelings. Vaginal thrush can be treated by rinsing the vagina with warm water and vinegar, and then using metronidazole vaginal effervescent tablets for vaginal medication. It is also recommended to take some oral metronidazole tablets. Moreover, the medication duration should be extended. Generally, two to three courses of treatment are needed. During medication, sexual intercourse should be avoided. The daily treatment for vaginal thrush mainly involves oral medication. Patients can take some oral medications and supplement with vitamins. Additionally, maintaining a regular schedule, avoiding smoking and alcohol, is important. We hope that vaginal thrush patients can recover quickly!
