Patient's question:
I had my period on December 7th, and by the third day, I started experiencing vaginal itching. It seems like my period hasn't ended yet, and I have a white discharge from my vagina that looks like cottage cheese, but it also has blood streaks and a foul odor. On the 12th, I went to a pharmacy, and after the staff explained the situation, I bought Antigynecitis Tablets, Huangteng Tablets, and a vaginal cleansing liquid. Today is the third day of taking the medication, but the itching is still there, and my discharge hasn't returned to normal. I need help: How should I continue taking the medication? What can I do to relieve the abnormal discharge and vaginal itching?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in your case, you should first undergo a routine careful examination of leukorrhea. It is essential to identify the pathogen before starting medication treatment. Additionally, it is important to note that once vaginitis is diagnosed, medication should be taken patiently and not discontinued prematurely. After the medication course is completed, you must have three consecutive negative test results to be considered cured. During treatment, sexual activity must be avoided, and you should also avoid consuming irritating foods. It is recommended that patients pay more attention to their diet in daily life, avoiding irritating foods. Get plenty of rest!
