Patient's question:
I have had vaginitis for over a year. Previously, I had been taking Western medicine to control it. Now it has flared up again, and I want to try some other medication to see if it will be more effective. Can vaginitis be treated with traditional Chinese medicine?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis can determine the treatment with traditional Chinese medicine. It is important to maintain personal hygiene at all times. It is necessary to wash and change underwear and other close-fitting clothing frequently. Avoid drinking beer and smoking. It is recommended not to have sexual activity during the treatment to prevent transmission. Solutions and vaginal medications can be used for treatment. If necessary, promptly visit the TCM department of a formal Grade A hospital for a thorough examination and follow the doctor's advice on medication.
