What is candidiasis vulvovaginitis?

Patient's question:

A while ago, I felt very uncomfortable and went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The result was that I was diagnosed with candidiasis vaginitis. I am very clean by nature, so why does it keep recurring and not get better? How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

You have a fungal vaginal infection, which can be treated with medication and does not require surgery. For the next few months, it is best to avoid sexual activity. You need a combination of vaginal medication and oral antifungal drugs for treatment, with one course per week. After two months, once your period is clean, you should have another course to stabilize the condition. Your boyfriend should take oral antifungal medication and use antifungal creams on his external genitalia. In addition to treating the vaginal infection, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
