Patient's question:
How can bacterial vaginosis be treated? It recurs every month during ovulation when there is increased discharge, causing severe pain and itching in the external genitalia, apart from occasional itching. It always occurs during ovulation each month, and I seek help from a doctor.Doctor's answer:
During the ovulation period, the vagina will have an increase in secretions, making it more prone to vaginal inflammation. It is recommended to use a liquid to clean the external genital area and then insert a suppository into the vagina for treatment. If the condition is completely cured, it generally may take two to three weeks. During the treatment period, avoid sexual activity and pay close attention to local hygiene. Use cotton underwear that is breathable as the basis, and have regular follow-up examinations. Bacterial vaginosis is a condition that is not easily resolved. Patients should maintain a positive attitude and face it with optimism. Only in this way can they boost their confidence in fighting bacterial vaginosis and believe that they will surely recover.
