Patient's question:
I would like to ask how long one needs to take fluconazole continuously for recurrent candidiasis of the vagina, what liquid to use, what medication to insert, and what medication to take.Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis is a type of vaginitis caused by an infection with Candida albicans, a fungus. Mild infections may be asymptomatic. The most common symptoms are itching of the external genitalia and an increase in vaginal discharge. The typical discharge is white, curd-like, and can generally be treated with a 2% sodium bicarbonate rinse of the vagina and external washing of the genital area. Daktar vaginal suppositories can also be used. The occurrence of candidal vulvovaginitis not only affects a woman's quality of life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for an ultrasound examination to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. It is also important to drink plenty of water and maintain good personal hygiene.
