Patient's question:
Recently, I have experienced symptoms of vulvar itching again, which is particularly severe at night. I often can't resist scratching it with my hands, and it also burns when I urinate. This condition has persisted for about 3 months. I once consulted a doctor at the hospital, and they recommended using a medication called Micatin. However, I was afraid it might affect the baby, so I never used it. Instead, I have been using Jie'eryin liquid for washing, but it hasn't been very effective! I want to know if I might have a disease, and whether I can use medication for this condition now?Doctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you described, you may have developed vaginitis. You should go to a regular hospital's gynecology department for examination. It is best to have some secretions tested, and then take medication according to the symptoms. Vaginitis can easily spread downwards and lead to amniotic cavity infection, which may result in premature birth. Vaginitis is usually treated with topical medication in the vagina. Additionally, the doctor will decide to use the least or non-interfering medication on the fetus. You must follow the doctor's advice for treatment, and it can definitely be cured. For patients, if the gynecological condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and proper medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of gynecological diseases.
