Patient's question:
The doctor recently felt uncomfortable in the lower abdomen and went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said she had a fungal vaginal infection. I don't know how I got this disease, but could it have been from taking a bath? I want to ask the doctor if a fungal vaginal infection can affect the ability to have children.Doctor's answer:
Candidiasis vulvovaginitis is a disease commonly diagnosed in gynecology clinics, caused by a fungal infection. It is related to factors such as low immunity, soaking in baths, and washing underwear together with that of a fungal infection patient. Sexual activity can also lead to infection. If a woman with candidiasis vulvovaginitis becomes pregnant, it may have adverse effects on the growth and development of the fetus. Therefore, if someone wants to have a child, they must first seek proper treatment for candidiasis vulvovaginitis at a regular public hospital's gynecology department before conceiving to ensure the health of the next generation. In addition to timely treatment, patients with vaginitis should also pay attention to maintaining deep sleep in their daily lives.
