Patient's question:
She got pregnant. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and they said I had a gynecological disease. They advised me to treat the gynecological disease first before considering having a child, but they recommended against it, saying it would affect the child. I really want to have a child. Is it true that having a gynecological disease is bad for the child? Can I give birth first and then treat the gynecological disease?Doctor's answer:
During the first 3 months of pregnancy, treatment is not recommended. After that, safe medication will be administered to the pregnant woman based on the severity of the condition. To prevent reinfection, towels and underwear should be boiled for 5 to 10 minutes daily to eliminate pathogens. In the second and third trimesters, vaginal suppositories such as metronidazole can be used. One suppository should be inserted deep into the vagina after washing the external genitalia before bedtime each night. The treatment duration is 10 days. Use with caution in the early stages of pregnancy; Baofukang suppositories can be used as an alternative. Sexual activity should be avoided during treatment.
