Patient's question:
At 56, she has been menopausal for 4 years. Recently, her leukorrhea has suddenly increased, and her gynecological examination shows a red cervix.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description of the symptoms, this is likely senile vaginitis. The treatment involves using Fuyanjie for local bathing and wiping of the external genital area every night, followed by placing metronidazole effervescent tablets into the vagina. It is recommended to pay attention to personal hygiene, change underwear frequently, and wash them with boiling water. The medication should be used in the vagina for about a week. For the patient, if there is an increase in leukorrhea and the condition worsens, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered with proper medication. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of increased leukorrhea.
