What is the relationship between candidal vaginitis and vaginal bleeding?

Patient's question:

I had candidiasis and went to the hospital for three days of treatment. Today, I have some bleeding from my vagina. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

You may have developed a fungal vaginal infection in this case.
Guidelines:
Effective medication involves using antifungal drugs (such as Daktarin suppositories, Clotrimazole suppositories) inserted into the vagina for 10 consecutive days to achieve a cure. After 10 days, stop taking the medication and wait 7 days before rechecking. If the infection has been cured, no further medication is needed. It’s worth noting: during the treatment period (10 days), the underwear worn should not be worn again after treatment ends. Instead, purchase new underwear to wear. This is to prevent the "old" underwear from retaining fungi, which could serve as a source of reinfection.
