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 there's a discharge from my vagina that looks like cottage cheese, mixed with 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 vaginal cleansing liquid. It's been three days since I started 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 should not be stopped prematurely. After the medication 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 eating irritating foods. It is recommended that patients pay more attention to their diet in daily life and avoid irritating foods. Get plenty of rest!
