Vaginitis is a relatively common gynecological disease, and candidiasis is one of the more prevalent types. Pay attention to personal hygiene, maintain clean and dry external genitalia, wash and change underwear frequently, do not share towels or bathtubs with others, and avoid wearing nylon or similar fabric underwear. During the illness, all used towels and underwear should be boiled and sterilized. Vaginitis patients can, while understanding the need for symptomatic treatment, also use dietary therapy as a supplementary treatment in daily life. In daily dietary habits, it is crucial to avoid excessive hunger or fullness and never overeat or binge on food.
