Patient's question:
Female, 26 years old, married. I see my husband only once a month, so when we are together, we have frequent intimacy. After each sexual act, I clean myself very thoroughly because my husband likes to touch me, and I'm afraid of getting dirty. However, symptoms of vulvar itching still appear after two or three days. I thought washing would solve the problem, but it got worse. There was a lot of discharge from my vagina, resembling cottage cheese in texture, slightly green in color, but odorless. At that point, the itching actually stopped. Later, I bought a vaginal cleanser and a suppository called Kangfutai from a pharmacy, and the symptoms resolved. Additionally, my discharge became very minimal and thick. This month, after intimacy with my husband, the same symptoms reappeared, but he is fine. I don't know what it could be.Doctor's answer:
Hello, gynecological inflammation is inherently stubborn. Although you have undergone repeated treatments, they remain incomplete. There are three possible reasons: first, the initial treatment was not thorough; second, there was no joint treatment with your partner, leading to a recurrence. Third, poor hygiene habits in daily life. Changing bad hygiene habits, for example, using the same basin for multiple purposes—such as (, which means "for" but is redundant in English), (, which means "for" but is redundant in English), and (, which means "for" but is redundant in English)—is problematic.Second, if treatment is required, both partners should be treated together. Since you have a bacterial infection, your partner may also be infected and can take oral medication for treatment, while also using external washing methods.
Third, if treatment follows a course, take the medication regularly according to the prescribed dosage and do not arbitrarily interrupt it. This will not be conducive to recovery.
