How should one deal with vaginitis during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Vaginal itching, excessive white discharge, yellow in pregnancy severe. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Checked at the hospital, diagnosed with candidal vaginitis. The doctor prescribed a seven-day medication, only used five days, still itchy after a while, often using salt water wash didn't help. How can it be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Pregnant women can be treated together for fungal infections, so there is no need to worry. During pregnancy, you can use nystatin vaginal effervescent tablets. The main ingredients of this medication, in addition to nystatin, also include many lactose and sodium bicarbonate. This medication is a topical vaginal drug. Since it is applied locally, it only exhibits its antibacterial effect locally in the vagina, forming a high concentration. Unlike oral medications that need to be metabolized by the liver and enter the body's circulation, this medication does not undergo systemic metabolism and will not interfere with the fetus. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with vaginitis also need to pay attention to maintaining deep sleep throughout their lives. Sufficient deep sleep can help you recover from this condition more quickly. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you!
