Patient's question:
All symptoms: Onset time and cause of candidal vulvovaginitis: NoneTreatment history: Previously treated with electrocoagulation for moderate endometritis. A few days ago, I went to the hospital for a follow-up check, and the doctor said the endometritis had completely healed, but there was still candidiasis. They prescribed two boxes of povidone-iodine cream, and after using it for three or four days, greenish discharge appeared from the vagina. What could be the reason for this?
Help needed: What is the green discharge? It cannot be the cream, as the cream is reddish-brown.
Doctor's answer:
Hello! Moderate cervical erosion is difficult to cure solely with medication. It is recommended to opt for physical therapy. LEEP treatment can be used, as LEEP (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure) is an efficient physical therapy specifically designed for cervical erosion patients. It can completely remove the eroded area, is painless, leaves no scars, and is suitable for unmarried and childless women. It causes minimal damage to surrounding tissues, does not affect cervical elasticity, and preserves the patient's fertility. Generally, only one surgery is needed for moderate to severe erosion.
