How long does fungal vulvitis take to heal?

Patient's question:

I noticed some abnormal discharge from my underwear over the past few weeks. It usually looks like cottage cheese. I got a thorough gynecological examination, and the doctor said I have candidiasis. How long does candidal vulvovaginitis take to heal?

Doctor's answer:

In general, candidiasis can be relieved with medication within about ten days. However, everyone has a different constitution and sensitivity to medication, so it cannot be generalized. Candidiasis is a relatively common and easily recurring gynecological disease. During treatment, patients must maintain a light diet, avoiding overly sweet or fried foods, and should not engage in sexual activity again.
