Doctor's answer:
Hello:To treat recurrent candidal vulvovaginitis, it is first necessary to eliminate the causes that lead to repeated vaginal Candida infections, while extending the treatment duration and using multiple therapeutic methods simultaneously. Local treatment can involve first using traditional Chinese herbal medicine for fumigation and sitz baths, followed by medication insertion into the vagina and topical application of antifungal ointment. Local treatment can be performed throughout the menstrual cycle, with medication cessation during menstruation and resumption after the menstrual period ends. Oral itraconazole, 200 mg per dose, once daily after meals, should be taken for three consecutive days. This treatment should be maintained for 1 to 2 months.
