How is candidal vulvovaginitis treated?

Patient's question:

I had a yeast infection last month, and it was already cured by the 5th of this month. I heard that this condition is prone to recurrence. Should I continue treatment? Additionally, on the 5th of this month, I underwent a fallopian tube hydrotubation test, which revealed that the tubes were not fully unobstructed. The doctor said there was inflammation and prescribed me to receive injections for 6 days and take some medication. Is this enough to make the tubes unobstructed?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, mold prefers a weakly acidic environment. It is recommended to rinse the vagina with a weakly alkaline solution, then apply Daktarin suppositories inside the vagina, and evenly apply Clotrimazole cream or Daktarin cream on the outer genitalia. For patients with frequent recurrences, it is recommended to continue treatment for three menstrual cycles. Daily, it is important to note that underwear and pants should not be washed with shoe soles or socks. It is best to use a separate laundry container for underwear and pants. After washing, it is best to expose the underwear and pants to sunlight. Sanitary pads should preferably be chosen from reputable brands to prevent poor disinfection from becoming a source of pathogens. During treatment, sexual intercourse is prohibited to avoid repeated mutual transmission through intercourse.
