Patient's question:
Patient Age:Detailed Condition and Purpose of Consultation: After intercourse, the wife has experienced vaginal itching that lasts for many days. She always takes a bath before each sexual encounter. What could be the reason? This is the first issue that has occurred in the past 2 months. Additional Information: No condom was used.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, your wife has candidal vulvovaginitis. The common treatment includes Jieshu Liquid, 2% sodium bicarbonate for cleaning the vulva and vagina, and local use of antifungal medications such as Daxin and Daking. In recent years, incomplete treatment or deep tissue infection in the vagina has been prone to recurrence. For recurrent vaginitis, oral medication is highly effective for prevention. Commonly used antifungal oral medications include fluconazole and Sporanox, taken every 2-4 weeks for 3-6 months, which can completely control the symptoms. Monthly premenstrual follow-ups are recommended, and three consecutive negative results indicate cure. During treatment, sexual intercourse is prohibited, and both partners should be treated together.
