Doctor's answer:

If the diagnosis is candidiasis, first use a 2% to 4% baking soda solution to rinse the vagina to inhibit the growth of Candida. After the rinsing is complete, insert Nystatin or Miconazole nitrate suppositories into the vagina. Candidiasis can be spread through sexual contact, and sexual activity is strictly prohibited during treatment. Sexual partners should also be tested and treated concurrently. Regular follow-up tests should be conducted after the course of treatment is completed. It is important to pay attention to enhancing nutrition, reducing fatigue, and strengthening the body's resistance. It is also necessary to change underwear frequently and wash used underwear, basins, and towels with hot water to effectively prevent recurrence.
