What effective oral medications are there for vaginitis?

Patient's question:

Patient Gender: Zhang
I don't know if I also have vaginitis. I saw many symptoms online that are somewhat similar, but I feel too embarrassed to go to the hospital. Could you help me make an online diagnosis? Is it really vaginitis, and what type is it? What medication should I use (preferably oral)?
Symptoms: There are no obvious abnormalities on the surface, just itching that is more intense than usual. It's bearable as long as I don't think about it. It's been two days, and it seems more severe today, with a bit of blood and some curd-like discharge. Help me! Save me! The onset and duration of this illness.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Based on your symptoms, it could be considered as candidiasis! If possible, it's best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination of secretions! Common medications for candidiasis include nystatin suppositories, one suppository per night (10,000 units), inserted deep into the vagina, with a 10-day course of treatment. At the same time, you can take Nizoral tablets for one week. After the course of treatment is completed, it is still necessary to go to the hospital for follow-up examination, and the choice requires dedicated medication. While paying attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, your husband should clean the penis before sexual activity. Treatment for candidiasis can be done with pure Western medicine, or a combination of Chinese and Western medicine treatment can also be used.
