Patient's question:
Since having sexual activity, I often experience vulvar itching, and besides the cottage cheese-like discharge, what could be the reason? Is it because we didn't take a bath before intimacy? But it didn't say we had to bathe before having sex, right? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Here are the symptoms of vaginitis, which are related to daily hygiene, unclean conditions, and frequent sexual activity. It is recommended that you use a diluted potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths and take oral medications such as Honghong tablets and metronidazole. You can also use anti-inflammatory suppositories for vaginal treatment. Pay attention to perineal hygiene, rinse the vaginal area daily with warm water, and ensure proper hygiene before and after sexual activity. The condition of vulvar itching is quite severe, and it is advised that patients seek timely symptomatic treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for treatment. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid spicy and irritating foods to help alleviate the condition. The above answers are hoped to be helpful to you. Thank you.
