How long is the course of treatment for candidal vulvovaginitis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have candidiasis of the vagina, and I am currently being treated. I have taken some medication and started taking it just now. This is the first course of treatment. How long is a course of treatment for candidiasis of the vagina, and how many courses are needed?

Doctor's answer:

Candidiasis is a gynecological disease caused by a fungal infection, and it is a relatively common condition in gynecological clinical diagnosis. In fact, treatment is quite simple. Clinically, it is common to take nystatin tablets, use a diluted solution of red root liquid to rinse the vagina and external genitalia, and use medications such as clotrimazole suppositories inside the vagina for effective treatment. It is best for both partners to be treated together for better results and to prevent recurrence. Under normal circumstances, as long as the medication is administered promptly and appropriately, and attention is paid to daily regulation, it generally heals within one course of treatment. Vaginitis is a condition that is not easy to recover from. Patients should always maintain a positive attitude and face it with an optimistic mindset.
