Patient's question:
On the 18th, the external genital itching reappeared. On the 22nd, a hospital examination confirmed it to be candidal vulvovaginitis. On the 22nd, clotrimazole vaginal tablets were used in addition to oral medication, but on the 25th, menstruation occurred. Now, there is basically no cottage cheese-like discharge. About the previous treatment and its effectiveness: How many times do I still need to take clotrimazole vaginal tablets?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you clarify your doubts! You have a question about the treatment of candidal vulvovaginitis. In fact, you do have the aforementioned condition, and it is still important to focus on treatment at this time. Since this condition is relatively stubborn, the treatment duration should be longer. Additionally, after treatment, you should undergo follow-up tests. If you have sexual activity, you should also be treated along with your sexual partner. It is not scary to get vaginitis; patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and symptomatic treatment is provided, the chances of controlling the condition and recovering are very high.
