What should be done about candidal vulvovaginitis?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I am pregnant and have a moldy vaginal infection? Can I take medication? Or can I buy some cleaning solution to wipe the vulva?

Doctor's answer:

I have developed a moldy vaginal infection, and oral medication is not suitable for treatment during this stage. Under the guidance of a doctor, topical medications can be used to prevent the inflammation from worsening, which could lead to uterine infection and potentially affect the next normal delivery. Alkaline liquid can be used to rinse the vagina, and suppositories can be inserted locally for treatment. Specific medications should be strictly followed according to the doctor's advice. Pay attention to external genital hygiene and change underwear frequently.
