Patient's question:
I recently got a fungal vaginal infection. Besides itching, I haven't had too many other symptoms. Now that I'm taking medication, it's working quite well. I want to pay more attention to my lifestyle. Online experts, what should I pay attention to in daily life for a fungal vaginal infection?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis cannot be cured with medication alone; applying medication directly to the vagina is the fastest way to heal. It's important to change underwear daily and pay attention to sexual hygiene. Avoid overusing antibiotics, as this can lead to dysbiosis and make you more susceptible to infections. Don't use any random cleaning solutions—just regular washing is sufficient.For those with vaginitis, while understanding professional treatment, you can also use home remedies as supplementary therapy. In daily diet, avoid extreme hunger or overeating, and never indulge in binge eating.
