Can pregnant women use potassium permanganate to clean the external genitalia for itching?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can external itching during pregnancy be treated with potassium permanganate?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, it is related to a chronic disease and infection. It can be treated with a diluted potassium permanganate solution for external washing. Pay attention to personal hygiene and rinse the external genital area with clean water daily. You can also take the traditional Chinese medicine Longdan Xiegan Wan for regulation. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to go to the gynecology department of a hospital for a routine examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Pay attention to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
