Patient's question:
Abnormal discharge, curd-like texture. Lab results: Leukocytes ++, small rods ++++, mold spores +++. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Some medications used in the past have developed resistance to mold. Medications work temporarily, but symptoms return after stopping for two days. Apart from azithromycin, most antifungal treatments have also become ineffective. Intercourse is infrequent, and when it occurs, condoms are used. Why hasn't the mold infection cleared up?Doctor's answer:
Hello: The recurrence of candidal vaginitis can be attributed to two factors: the transmission of Candida albicans and changes in the vaginal pH. Therefore, treatment must address both aspects. The treatment primarily consists of local medication and systemic medication, with a course of treatment typically lasting 1-3 weeks. It is recommended to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for follow-up, and under the guidance of a doctor, determine the sensitive medication and follow the standardized treatment protocol. Regular follow-up tests should be conducted.
