Patient's question:
I have been pregnant for several months now. During this time, I haven't felt very comfortable with my vagina, and it has been very painful. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I was diagnosed with candidiasis (yeast infection). I want to get treatment as soon as possible to avoid any impact on the fetus. What should I do if I get candidiasis during pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Your condition is a fungal vaginal infection. You can use Baofukang suppositories for vaginal medication. This medication is safe to use during pregnancy, and using it for a few days will not have a significant impact on the fetus. During treatment, avoid sexual intercourse and spicy foods. Maintain good hygiene and clean the external genital area with warm water daily. Take the medication on schedule and carefully observe whether the discomfort symptoms improve.As patients face the impact of vaginal infections, we should promptly implement symptomatic treatment principles and avoid delaying medical consultation. If the vaginal infection does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly reassess and adjust the treatment plan.
