What factors can cause candidal vulvovaginitis?

Patient's question:

My mother is not young, she always gets vaginitis, and it looks very painful when I see her. It's just a moldy vaginitis. My mother is very clean, she always wipes her external genitalia, and she often soaks her underwear in 84 disinfectant. She washes them by hand and changes her underwear every day, but she still always gets this disease.

Doctor's answer:

General candidal vaginitis is mainly caused by four factors: taking antibiotics, excessive cleaning, taking birth control pills, and close relatives being infected. Avoid spicy foods and drinks such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw onions, raw garlic, and baijiu, as well as "fattening" foods, such as seafood like fish, crabs, shrimp, clams, mussels, oysters, and abalone, which are considered "fattening" and help reduce inflammation. In addition to treating vaginitis, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
