Patient's question:
Doctor, hello: I have vaginitis. The first treatment didn't work, so I switched to another hospital and took a course of medication for a recheck. The doctor said my condition was fine, but the last time I finished the medication and went for a check-up, it was good, but two days later it became worse. My discharge was even more than before. I'm on my period now. I'd like to ask how I should treat it after my period, and are there any Chinese herbal medicines that can treat it? Is Chinese medicine better or Western medicine? Thank youDoctor's answer:
Hello: Traditional Chinese medicine does not have any particularly effective drugs! Most women, after suffering from vaginitis, feel it is difficult to talk about it and resort to self-medication, which is very unfavorable to the recovery of the condition. It is important to have a timely and thorough examination and treatment. For candidal vaginitis, antifungal suppositories or tablets can be used, such as nystatin vaginal effervescent tablets or vaginal effervescent tablets, clotrimazole suppositories, miconazole vaginal tablets, nystatin tablets, etc., which are placed vaginally. They can also be used in combination with systemic medication and alternated for 7 to 10 days.
