What should I do if I have external itching with cottage cheese-like discharge?

Patient's question:

I had sex with my husband two days ago. After that, I've been experiencing itching in my external genital area, and there's a lot of cottage cheese-like discharge. I bought Fuyanjie to clean it, but it didn't help much. What should I do about the cottage cheese-like discharge?

Doctor's answer:

The vaginal discharge is caused by a fungal infection, so antifungal treatment targeting the pathogen should be administered. Baking soda can be used for vaginal irrigation, followed by medication insertion into the vagina. If oral medication is also taken in conjunction, the effect will be better. Additionally, during treatment, sexual activity should be avoided, and hygiene should be maintained.
Besides, in addition to timely treatment for vulvar itching, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important during the treatment.
