Patient's question:
Previously, I was diagnosed with candidiasis of the vagina and took a course of medication which improved the condition. I didn't go for a follow-up check-up. Now, three months later, my discharge is like cottage cheese again, and it's a bit itchy. I want to ask if candidiasis of the vagina can be completely cured on its own. Also, since I'm currently trying to conceive, will this vaginal candidiasis interfere with getting pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description of your condition: The discharge in your vagina has repeatedly changed to a curd-like consistency and is accompanied by external genital itching. There is a possibility that this could be a fungal vaginal infection. Depending on your physical condition, this condition may recur repeatedly. It is recommended that you adjust your diet and unhealthy lifestyle. Before preparing for pregnancy, it is important to treat the vaginal infection properly. Otherwise, it may interfere with your ability to conceive. The daily treatment for patients with vaginal infections primarily involves taking medication. Patients can use various oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and should pay attention to regular sleep schedules and avoid alcohol.
