How long after a course of treatment for candidal vaginitis should a follow-up visit be scheduled?

Patient's question:

Candidal vulvovaginitis will be completed after finishing the medication tomorrow, which means the course of treatment is over. In about a week, my period is also coming. I don't know whether it's better to go for prenatal check-up after stopping the medication or wait until after the period.

Doctor's answer:

Candidal vulvovaginitis is relatively easy to develop. Medications should be used according to the prescribed course, and follow-up tests should be conducted. In your current situation, you can wait until your menstrual period ends before retesting, or you can focus on medication and retest when your period is about to arrive in three months. In addition to medication for treating vaginal inflammation, patients should also pay attention to dietary aspects, such as proper eating habits and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also choose a professional hospital for diagnosis to achieve good treatment results.
