Patient's question:
I had a test for leukorrhea and routine urine test in November 2011 (because I had pain when urinating), and the result was bacterial vaginosis. The doctor prescribed effervescent tablets, ( is a typo, it should be "" which means "" in English), and anti-inflammatory medication! After a course of treatment (7 days), there was some improvement. Occasionally, I experienced itching during this period, but rinsing helped! However, in recent days, the itching in the private area has returned, and today I feel a particularly burning sensation when urinating. I haven't had sexual intercourse for the past one to two weeks and have been very careful with hygiene.Doctor's answer:
You may currently be experiencing a recurrence of bacterial vaginosis, or it could be a fungal vaginitis (also known as candidiasis) caused by overuse of antibiotics. These two conditions require completely different treatments. If you have candidiasis and continue to use the antibiotics previously prescribed, it will worsen the condition.It is recommended that you get a vaginal discharge test to identify the cause and use medication accordingly. The occurrence of bacterial vaginosis not only affects women's health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
