Can you have sex during the medication period for gynecological inflammation?

Patient's question:

I have gynecological inflammation. I am currently undergoing medication treatment. My husband suggested sexual intercourse, but I am afraid it may affect me. Can I have sexual intercourse during gynecological inflammation medication?

Doctor's answer:

During the medication and treatment period for gynecological inflammation, sexual activity must be strictly prohibited. This is especially important when using vaginal medication. Before the condition heals on its own, the use of condoms is necessary during sexual activity. The main purpose is to prevent cross-infection, which can cause women to undergo repeated treatment without effective results. In some cases of vaginal inflammation, both partners need to be treated simultaneously for the condition to be effectively resolved. For example, in cases of trichomoniasis. Wishing you good health.
