Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with candidal vulvovaginitis three years ago. At that time, I used some vaginal suppositories for the condition, but I no longer remember the exact medication names. However, I vaguely recall that after two courses of treatment, a specific examination at the hospital resolved the vaginal inflammation. Now, I have been diagnosed with cervical erosion again and want to know if candidal vulvovaginitis can cause cervical erosion?Doctor's answer:
Simple candidal vulvovaginitis generally does not cause cervical erosion. If the cervical erosion is mild and there are no pathogens such as Mycoplasma genitalium or human papillomavirus (HPV) present in the body, special treatment is usually not required. Rest, regular follow-up examinations, maintaining a positive and optimistic attitude, and paying attention to hygiene during menstruation and sexual activity are important. There is no need to worry too much.In addition, during the treatment of vaginitis, besides symptomatic treatment, dietary habits and psychological state are also crucial. It is essential to maintain a cheerful mood and a proper diet to avoid unnecessary negative impacts on the gradual recovery of vaginitis.
