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. How can I relieve fungal vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, considering you have candidiasis, also known as candidal vulvovaginitis, the main symptoms include intense itching of the external genitalia and typical cottage cheese-like curd-like discharge. Treatment can involve rinsing the vagina with alkaline solutions or soaking in a bath, or medication can be used. However, do not self-medicate. It is recommended to visit a hospital for examination to check if there is a co-infection with other pathogens. If you have sexual activity, both you and your partner should be tested and treated simultaneously to avoid cross-infection and recurrent episodes. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided. Since this condition is prone to recurrence, it is recommended to use medication for 3 to 6 months and undergo regular follow-up. If three consecutive tests show negative results, it is considered normal.
