Patient's question:
Just a few days now two months are the same, but I use wipes every day. I don't know why there's no itching now, but the white discharge is still tofu-like. When I have sexual activity again, sometimes there's a slight pain in the lower abdomen. What could be the cause of this?Doctor's answer:
White discharge resembling cottage cheese is a typical symptom of candidiasis vaginitis. It is recommended to promptly visit a hospital for a thorough examination of vaginal discharge and treatment. The characteristics of treating recurrent candidiasis vaginitis include eliminating the underlying causes that lead to repeated vaginal yeast infections, shortening the treatment duration, and employing multiple different treatment methods simultaneously. Local treatment can involve first using traditional Chinese herbal medicine for fumigation and sitz baths, followed by applying medication to the vagina, such as Daktarin or vaginal tablets, along with external ointments. Local treatment can be implemented throughout the menstrual cycle, with medication stopped during menstruation and focused treatment resumed after the period ends. For patients, if vaginal itching is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered with appropriate medication. Otherwise, it may lead to recurrent vaginal itching.
