Patient's question:
Last year, I also went to the traditional Chinese medicine hospital in the autumn, and this year it has flared up again. Sigh! Gynecological inflammation. The test results of vaginal discharge showed candidal vaginitis.Doctor's answer:
For simple vulvovaginal candidiasis, local medication is primarily used, and symptoms usually improve or disappear 2-3 days after treatment. Clotrimazole vaginal suppositories are used every other day, for a total of two times.Regarding the treatment of complex vulvovaginal candidiasis, the medications chosen are generally the same as for simple vulvovaginal candidiasis. Whether using local or systemic medication, the treatment duration should be appropriately extended.
The principle for treating vulvovaginal candidiasis during pregnancy is that the primary consideration is whether the medication will harm the fetus. Treatment should primarily involve local medication, with no systemic medication administered. It is limited to pregnant individuals with symptoms and signs.
