Patient's question:
I carefully checked for a normal vaginal test last year and took medication for a month. At that time, I wasn't pregnant yet. Can vaginal infections be treated in the early stages of pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Now that you are one month pregnant, it is not recommended to use douches. You can gently wash the external genital area with warm water every day. By the time you are three months pregnant, you can start treatment. At that point, you can use medication inserted into the vagina. Because in the first three months, using vaginal medication or undergoing gynecological examinations can easily lead to miscarriage, so you can wait until you are three months pregnant to start treatment. In addition to treating vaginitis, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet and maintain a joyful mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
