Patient's question:
Previously, after receiving treatment at People's Hospital and inserting medication into the vagina, the symptoms improved within a week. However, recently after sexual activity, the vaginal discharge has turned yellow again. Is it a recurrence of the condition? The cleaning medication I was previously prescribed is not fully used yet. Can I continue using it? Can I also use Cildocare for cleaning?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment period, personal hygiene should be paid attention to, and the external genital area should always be kept clean and dry. Wash and change underwear frequently, and do not share towels or bathtubs with others. Avoid wearing nylon or similar fabric underwear. During the illness, towels and underwear used should be boiled and sterilized. The diet should be light and avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent the generation of damp-heat or the consumption of yin blood. Pay attention to dietary nutrition. It is important to avoid sitting baths, vaginal wipes, and vaginal medication during menstruation. Alcohol consumption is strictly prohibited during medication. In addition to active treatment, bacterial vaginosis patients should also pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive attitude is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease.
