Patient's question:
Hello, how many days after treating trichomoniasis can I eat spicy food, drink beer, or have sex? Or do I have to wait until after the 3-month prenatal check-up?Doctor's answer:
During treatment, it is best to avoid sexual activity. Trichomoniasis is primarily caused by deficiency of qi and blood, invasion of dampness, and downward flow of damp-heat. Generally, it is difficult to cure with conventional drugs. Western medicine's routine anti-inflammatory and antibacterial treatments not only fail to cure the condition but also, due to prolonged use of antibiotics, lead to drug resistance, thereby increasing the difficulty of treatment. Therefore, it is essential to receive proper treatment to achieve a complete cure.Traditional Chinese medicine and herbal medicine have accumulated many highly effective treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. These methods are fast-acting and produce reliable results. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese herbs such as Chinese yam, Solomon's seal, cordyceps, longan fruit, clove, Guangdong purple rice, vitex, chicken blood vine, thousand-dollar, ophiopogon, donkey-hide gelatin, black snake, prepared polygonum, and peony root.
