Patient's question:
I am very worried about my health right now because I have been pregnant for several months. I always feel a strong itch down there, and washing every day doesn't help at all. I went to a gynecologist for a thorough check-up, and they said it's trichomoniasis vaginitis. How should pregnant women treat trichomoniasis vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
A pregnant woman with trichomoniasis should not take oral medication, as it may easily lead to the possibility of threatened miscarriage or fetal malformation. It is important to pay attention to maintaining local cleanliness and hygiene, changing underwear daily, washing underwear separately, exposing them to sunlight, and boiling the underwear. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods. Trichomoniasis is a disease that is not easy to relieve. Patients should maintain a positive attitude and face it with optimism, as only this can boost their confidence in fighting trichomoniasis and believe that recovery is certain.
