Patient's question:
Six months ago, there was a time when I had sex with my girlfriend without cleaning up afterward. Since then, my girlfriend has started experiencing vulvar itching, and the amount of her vaginal discharge has become particularly abundant and yellowish. Her menstrual cycle has also become irregular in length. After a thorough examination, it was said that she had developed gynecological inflammation. How is gynecological inflammation treated?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal itching, excessive yellow discharge, and irregular menstrual cycle duration may indicate gynecological inflammation. Apart from menstrual irregularities, it's advisable to conduct a detailed discharge examination and a gynecological examination to confirm the specific type of inflammation. If it's vaginitis, use a cleaning solution to rinse the vagina and apply local anti-inflammatory suppositories for one week. For cervicitis, anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary. Hormonal imbalance should be assessed through a six-item hormone test. The recurrence of gynecological inflammation poses a serious threat to women's health, so it's important to pay attention to post-menstrual follow-up examinations, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
