Patient's question:
My wife is currently 37 weeks pregnant. Recently, she noticed a discharge similar to cottage cheese, and I wonder if it could be a fungal vaginal infection. She has never had this kind of condition before. If it is, what should we do? Can medication be used? If she decides to have a natural birth, will it be affected? Most importantly, since she is in the later stages of pregnancy, could it interfere with the fetus? Can I use ABC liquid for this? Or should she use salt water or soap for washing?Doctor's answer:
The discharge is like cottage cheese, which may be a sign of candidiasis. Candida infection is not recommended for vaginal delivery, as it can affect the baby. It is recommended that you use soda water to rinse with Li Baimian Fun Jing Dan. It is a pure Chinese herbal preparation and can be used during pregnancy. It has a strong enzyme-degrading effect on candidiasis.Additionally, Li Baimian Fun Jing Dan has a unique internal vaginal regulating factor that can balance the pH of the vaginal environment in a short period, promote the rapid colonization of beneficial bacteria such as lactobacilli, and completely restore the self-cleaning function of the vaginal tract. This fundamentally prevents the recurrence of candidiasis.
