Patient's question:
I recently don't know what's wrong, I feel very painful in my vagina, and there is a lot of white discharge. I'm a bit worried, so I came to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it was candidiasis of the vagina. I want to consult here about how many days after taking medication for candidiasis can I have sex?Doctor's answer:
Since it still itches, it's likely not just the discharge affecting you. Keep adhering to the treatment for another cycle. Don't be careless, as yeast infections are prone to recur. Also, pay attention to boosting your immune system. Avoid sexual contact during your period, and make sure to clean your private area well in the days leading up to and following it. If you're really not at ease, you can go to the hospital for a routine discharge test. However, even if it's normal this time, it can flare up again if you're not careful in a few days. So, try to stay positive and reduce stress. Don't do anything until the itching stops.
