Patient's question:
I am 32 years old, like most women, I am prone to various diseases. Moreover, gynecological diseases are unpredictable. Last week, I started experiencing a bad odor downstairs, and in addition to that, there was also cheesy discharge. It might be a recurrence of candidiasis. My husband has been working and traveling for a long time, and recently she has returned. She wants to have sex with me. I want to know if it's okay to have sex with candidiasis?Doctor's answer:
If you have a fungal vaginal infection, abnormal vaginal discharge may reappear. In this case, sexual intercourse is not recommended. Proper treatment should be administered. Generally, nystatin suppositories can be prescribed, along with the use of Honghe wash solution for rinsing. You don't need to worry too much about this. As long as you persist with treatment for 1 to 2 weeks until full recovery, you can resume sexual intercourse. It is essential to follow the treatment diligently.In addition, during the treatment of vaginal infection, apart from immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. The patient must maintain a positive mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of the vaginal infection.
