Patient's question:
How should I treat external vaginal itching and excessive discharge at 40 days pregnant? I need some clarification from the doctor. I have never had this gynecological condition before because I am very particular about hygiene. On the other hand, I have also taken some health supplements and undergone some tests, and there were no problems.Doctor's answer:
At 40 days of pregnancy, the symptom of vulvar itching has reappeared, which is likely caused by a fungal infection. Therefore, you still need to rest more in these days and see how poor care may have led to the relief of the condition. It is necessary to arrange for a vaginal discharge test as soon as possible to examine the situation before using medication. If you use medication blindly, it may affect the growth and development of the embryo. During the first three months of pregnancy, it is important to pay attention to maintaining the pregnancy. In fact, having vulvar itching is not something to be afraid of. The patient should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as the symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of stabilizing the condition and recovering are very high.
