Patient's question:
Hello, I was diagnosed with candidal vaginitis half a month ago and took anti-inflammatory medication and used miconazole vaginal suppositories for 14 days. Today, two days after stopping the medication, my vaginal discharge is still yellow and similar to cottage cheese-like. Is this because the treatment hasn't been effective, or should I wait a few more days to see if it improves?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, the symptoms of candidal vaginitis (yeast infection) are indeed like cottage cheese! I suggest you don't get too anxious. For candidal vaginitis, it is necessary to take medication according to the prescribed course and properly. During treatment, you should avoid sexual intercourse, otherwise it will worsen! In addition to receiving treatment, patients with vaginitis also need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life. A positive mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease.
