Patient's question:
Doctor, I am already seven months pregnant. This is my first child. I got pregnant right after getting married to my husband last year. I would like to ask, I have developed a moldy vaginal infection at seven months of pregnancy. What should I do? Will this affect the baby? And can I take medication?Doctor's answer:
During pregnancy, contracting candidal vulvovaginitis is likely related to poor hygiene or a weakened immune system during pregnancy. Currently, it is necessary to actively treat candidal vulvovaginitis. If the infection spreads downward, it may easily lead to a recurrence of preterm labor. However, candidal vulvovaginitis does not directly affect the fetus. If the infection has not healed before delivery, it is recommended to opt for a cesarean section. The daily treatment for vaginitis patients primarily involves medication. Patients can take various oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, while also maintaining a regular schedule and avoiding alcohol. We hope that vaginitis patients can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
