Patient's question:
Vaginal candidiasis after using vaginal medication for two courses, had sexual relations after the first course except for the second course after the completion of the second course, there was brown discharge. Upon closer inspection, it was white and similar to the epidermis, like the skin. What is going on, doctor? Please, I used dehumidifying, anti-swelling, and pain-relieving liquid and polyvinylpyrrolidone ointment.Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis, prone to occur, requires medication according to a prescribed course. You can use a 2-4% baking soda solution to rinse the external genital area, and then insert "Miconazole Nitrate Suppositories" into the vagina for treatment. Use one course of medication after each menstrual period, alternating for 3 menstrual cycles. During treatment, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited. The vaginal infection is considered cured only if three consecutive post-menstrual tests of vaginal discharge show normal results.There are many treatment methods for vaginal infections, but since patients have different symptoms, the treatment methods used will also vary. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely examination and diagnosis to receive symptomatic treatment.
