Patient's question:
Hello, during the treatment for acute external genital inflammation and vaginitis, I am taking medication and my period has come. Should I stop taking the medication?Doctor's answer:
Currently, you need to stop treatment. Most of these diseases require local treatment. During the menstrual period, local treatment is not suitable to avoid other complications. If it is oral medication, you can take it as usual. If it is local treatment medication, you need to stop treatment. After the menstrual period ends, you can resume treatment. For patients, if the condition of vulvitis is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment is required, and appropriate medication should be used, otherwise it may lead to a recurrence of vulvitis. In addition, patients also need to maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition. I hope the answers to the above questions can help everyone. Thank you.
