Patient's question:
Menstruation is dark, abnormal leukorrhea, white or yellow discharge remains on underwear, the vaginal opening was initially rice-grain-like and now is slightly swollen. I went to the hospital for gynecological color Doppler ultrasound and vaginal mirror examination, and also tested the secretions. The test results showed candidal vaginitis. I was prescribed Cefixime Soft. However, my period is coming soon. Can I still use it?Doctor's answer:
As long as menstruation hasn't arrived, it can be used. If menstruation occurs while using the medication, it's fine. After menstruation ends, if there's no sensation, it's not necessary to use it. If there's a sensation, you can focus on it again. During menstruation, it cannot be used. For patients with abnormal vaginal discharge, in addition to symptomatic treatment, they should also pay attention to maintaining a proper diet in daily life to digest nutrients, and also pay attention to personal hygiene.
