What should I do if I still don't feel comfortable after taking medication for vaginitis?

Patient's question:

Diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis after a thorough examination at the hospital, I took medication, but I still don't feel comfortable.

Doctor's answer:

General treatment usually shows effectiveness within 7 days. If you still feel uncomfortable after taking the medication for 7 days, it is best to continue for another 7 days and then have a follow-up check at the hospital. During medication, try to avoid spicy and irritating foods, pay attention to vulvar hygiene, and wear loose cotton underwear. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited during the treatment period. For severe bacterial vaginosis patients, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Do not switch medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect. The above advice is for reference only.
