Patient's question:
I have been experiencing minor health issues since my cesarean section. Initially, my menstrual flow and leukorrhea became less than before, and I also experienced vaginal dryness. Two months ago, I was diagnosed with candidal vaginitis, which has now been fully cured after treatment. A few days ago, I felt vaginal pain during intercourse, and today's examination revealed pus cells in the epithelial cells, indicating that the inflammation has flared up again! My husband and I are very careful about hygiene, washing daily. What could be the reason for this? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
