Patient's question:
I have a fungal vaginal infection, and many conventional medications have not been effective. When I stop taking the medication, the itching intensifies, and the perineum becomes particularly sensitive. Now, looking back, since I had the gamma ring placed, the fungal vaginal infection has been especially difficult to heal. Before, it was just itching and excessive vaginal discharge, but now it's not only itching and excessive discharge, but more painfully, scrubbing the perineum causes severe itching and the formation of ulcer-like granules (those prominent granules in the vaginal area).Hello expert, what is going on? Is there any good solution?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is recommended to implement treatment under the guidance of a doctor. For recurrent candidal vulvovaginitis, the first step is to eliminate the causes that lead to repeated vaginal candidiasis infections, while shortening the treatment period and using multiple different treatment methods simultaneously. Local treatment can involve first using traditional Chinese herbal medicine for fumigation and sitz baths, followed by medication insertion into the vagina and applying antifungal ointment externally. Local treatment can be implemented throughout the menstrual cycle, with medication cessation during menstruation and resuming treatment after menstruation. Oral itraconazole capsules, 200 mg each time, once daily after meals, for 3 consecutive days. This treatment should be maintained for 1 to 2 months.
