Patient's question:
Candidiasis of the vagina was carefully diagnosed two years ago, and it has been troubling me for a long time, bringing some inconvenience to my life. Recently, the check-up showed some stability, so I am preparing to go for prenatal care. What preparations are needed for a re-examination of candidiasis of the vagina?Doctor's answer:
Re-examination is generally performed at the hospital after menstruation is clean for 3 to 7 days for a thorough check. It is best not to have sexual intercourse before the re-examination, and medication should be stopped for more than a week to avoid interfering with the accuracy of the examination results. Candidal vaginitis is caused by fungal infection and is relatively easy to occur. Clinically, it is treated according to the course of treatment, and three negative results from leukorrhea routine tests are considered cured. However, it can recur if the body's resistance increases, after the menstrual period, or if hygiene is not paid attention to. Therefore, the recurrence rate is relatively high. Rest and drink more water during daily life.
