Patient's question:
Is it true that women who have had sexual activity, to varying degrees, will inevitably suffer from gynecological diseases? I visited a relatively formal hospital for a check-up. The results showed normal vaginal discharge, but I frequently experience itching in the external genital area. During sexual activity, the inner vaginal area also feels itchy, and it is often accompanied by a foul odor. I have taken anti-inflammatory medication, but it hasn't had any noticeable effect.Doctor's answer:
Vaginal itching refers to a symptom caused by various gynecological diseases. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is known as "vaginal pruritus" or "ant sores." The key to treating this condition lies in maintaining good menstrual hygiene, keeping the external genitalia clean, and promptly eliminating the underlying cause. "Treating the root is more important than treating the symptom."Herbal Wash Prescription:
Berberine (50g), White Dryopteris (50g), Cnidium Monnieri (50g), Schizonepeta (50g), Saposhnikovia Divaricata (50g), Sophora Flavescens (50g), Radix Gentianae (50g), Mentha ( decocted later) (1g).
Usage:
Decoct the herbs in water, make one dose per day, and use the liquid to steam-wash the external genitalia. Each session lasts 10 minutes, performed twice daily. A 10-day period constitutes one course of treatment.
Effectiveness:
After 1–2 courses of steam-washing, the effective rate reaches 98%.
Gynecological diseases have a significant impact on patients. Once symptoms are noticed, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, dietary habits should be carefully managed, with a focus on light and nutritious foods.
