Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing some inflammatory conditions in my body. When I had a thorough examination at the hospital, it was diagnosed as candidal vulvovaginitis. The doctor said that all types of candidiasis have a latent period. So, could you please tell me how long the latency period of candidiasis is?Doctor's answer:
The incubation period of candidiasis is generally three or four days. However, if the body's resistance is relatively poor, once infected with candidiasis, symptoms may reappear. Candidiasis is mainly caused by poor personal hygiene or infection between partners. Patients face the harm of vaginitis directly, and we should actively adopt treatment measures without avoiding medical consultation. If vaginitis does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly change the treatment plan.
