Patient's question:
I feel a bit unwell. During the examination, I was diagnosed with vaginitis, specifically trichomoniasis. How is trichomoniasis treated?Doctor's answer:
You can use metronidazole vaginal suppositories or one tablet of metronidazole for vaginal medication. Use them after cleaning the vagina each night, with a 10-day course being one treatment. Pay attention to hygiene, clean the external genitalia daily, and change underwear frequently. Wash underwear and towels in boiling water to sterilize them, and frequently air out bedding. During treatment, sexual activity and spicy foods are strictly prohibited. In addition to symptomatic treatment, trichomoniasis patients should also pay attention to maintaining deep sleep throughout their lives. Sufficient deep sleep is essential to help you recover quickly from this condition.
