Patient's question:
Today I went to the hospital for a gynecological examination. The doctor gave me vaginal medication, but I was not informed about it. Later that night after intercourse, I noticed a lot of white medication coming out. Please ask if this will affect my health.Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis, Candidal Vaginitis Treatment:(1) General Treatment: Actively treat other diseases that can cause candidal vaginitis and eliminate susceptible factors.
(2) Change the vaginal pH: The optimal pH for Candida growth is 5.5. Therefore, using alkaline solutions to rinse the external genitalia and vagina can alter the vaginal pH, inhibiting the growth and reproduction of Candida. A 2%–4% baking soda solution can be used to rinse the vagina once or twice daily, with 2 weeks constituting one course of treatment.
(3) Vaginal Medication: Using imidazole suppositories for vaginal medication is highly effective for candidal vaginitis. Clotrimazole suppositories, one per night, are inserted into the vagina after rinsing, with a 10–14-day course of treatment; or Daktarin suppositories, one per night, are applied to the vagina after rinsing, with a 7-day course of treatment. Early recovery.
