Patient's question:
A few days before menstruation, the area below it itches, and the discharge is creamy. I went to the hospital, and they said it was mild vulvitis. They didn't conduct a thorough examination of the discharge or anything, just prescribed a herbal wash and capsules. Since there are no symptoms after each menstrual period, there's not much effect from the medication. This month, the itching started again a few days before the period. What kind of help do you need: Should I go to the hospital specifically to get medicine? Will it recover naturally? It only itches a few days before menstruation, and there are no symptoms otherwise.Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, there may be a case of vaginitis and vulvitis. It is recommended that you undergo a gynecological examination and test your vaginal discharge for symptomatic treatment.Recommendations:
1. Maintain a calm mood and avoid tension and anxiety.
2. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
3. Wash underwear separately and expose them to sunlight as much as possible.
Since patients are directly affected by vulvitis, we should actively take treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If vulvitis does not improve with treatment, it is important to change the treatment plan promptly.
