What medication is used for candidal vulvovaginitis?

Patient's question:

I have candidal vulvovaginitis and have been using Clotrimazole suppositories. On the first day of medication, there was no blood in my vagina. On the third day, there was a little bit of blood, and it was more than on the third day. As a result, on the fourth day when I went to bed, I noticed the bleeding was like my menstrual period. I thought it was my period, but later there was no more blood. I also had some abdominal pain. I want to ask you, what could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description, it seems to be the impact of medication on the vagina during treatment. I recommend stopping vaginal medication first. Once the skin condition improves, you can use baking soda to clean the external genital area. For the vagina, use Daktarine suppositories for treatment. Be mindful not to have sexual intercourse during the treatment period.
Additionally, during the treatment of candidiasis vulvovaginitis, it is crucial not only to receive timely treatment but also to pay attention to the patient's dietary habits and mental state. The patient should maintain a light diet and always stay cheerful to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of candidiasis vulvovaginitis.
