Patient's question:
A few days ago, I had sex with my boyfriend. On the third day, I was diagnosed with candidiasis. After Wang Fang carefully checked her body and found nothing wrong, she was very happy. But now she is also very worried, and so am I. The doctor prescribed some ointment for me to apply myself. I want to know if there are any other methods besides applying ointment?Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis requires the use of specific medications and cleaning agents for treatment. It is not recommended to use oral medications randomly, as this can easily lead to misdiagnosis of the condition, nor should ointments be applied without proper guidance. Additionally, this type of vaginitis is often related to poor hygiene practices in the lower body, and it may also be caused by transmission during sexual activity. Both partners should take medication simultaneously during treatment, avoid sexual relations during the course of treatment, and maintain a light diet.In addition to timely treatment for vaginitis, patients should always maintain a positive attitude when facing the disease. Only in this way can their immunity be strengthened and their belief in combating the illness be enhanced.
