Patient's question:
I had some itching in my vagina a few days ago and went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said I had candidiasis of the vagina and prescribed some medication. However, after several days, the itching is still not gone, and it seems the medication isn't working well. How should I be treated?Doctor's answer:
1. Change the pH of the vagina, such as using alkaline drugs to rinse the vagina, such as using 2-4% soda solution to rinse the vagina to change the living environment of the fungus.2. Medication treatment
(1) Locally apply antiseptic gel twice a day.
(2) Take oral ketoconazole (ketoconazole) 400mg twice a day for 5 days.
(3) Trichomycin, see the treatment of trichomoniasis of the vagina. Additionally, take oral clotrimazole or clomiphene 0.5-1g three times a day, or locally use 1-5% ointment or lotion three to four times a day, which also has a good effect.
