What medication should be used for candidal vulvovaginitis?

Patient's question:

About last year, I always felt an extreme itch down there, and it often came with white discharge. My underwear was frequently wet. Besides the odor, I was so troubled by these symptoms that I went for a thorough check-up. I was told it was a fungal vaginal infection. I tried many medications repeatedly, but they didn't help at all. I would like to ask you, what kind of medicine is effective for this fungal vaginal infection?

Doctor's answer:

Candidal vulvovaginitis is not easy to heal on its own, and it is also prone to recurring repeatedly after treatment. Generally, medication treatment should be taken under the guidance of a local doctor. During the treatment period, sexual activity should be avoided, and it is best for sexual partners to be treated simultaneously. Usually, a negative re-examination three times in a row after menstruation is clean. Then it can be considered as having healed. It is also important to pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of the vulva. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with vaginitis should also pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life. A good mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you!
