Patient's question:

Is it okay to use miconazole nitrate suppositories for three months for bacterial vaginosis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, bacterial vaginosis is likely caused by inflammation. It is recommended to take gynecological anti-inflammatory medication orally or use anti-cervicitis tablets. Daily use of Honghe lotion to clean the external genitalia and vagina, and inserting metronidazole effervescent tablets into the vagina. Since miconazole vaginal suppositories are not effective for bacterial vaginosis but work well for fungal vaginosis, alternate medication with one week of each for a total of three months for complete self-healing. Always maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia and pay attention to personal hygiene.
