Patient's question:
I usually pay great attention to keeping my private area clean, but recently, I've noticed that my white discharge has been yellowish and sometimes has a fishy odor. I quickly went to the hospital for a routine vaginal discharge test and found out that I have candidiasis. Although the doctor prescribed me some hygiene medications, I'm also very anxious to know how to recover from candidiasis.Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is best to go to the hospital to get a secretion test, as the results of retesting will be relatively accurate. Candida vulvovaginitis is mainly caused by the transmission due to long-term lack of cleanliness in the external genitalia. Treating candidal vulvovaginitis requires following the doctor's advice and using medication for the full course. If the medication duration is too short, the treatment may not be thorough, leading to high recurrence rates. During the treatment period, sexual intercourse should be avoided. Additionally, for patients with vaginitis, their dietary condition and care during treatment are also crucial. Patients must pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary harm.
