Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: During a physical examination, I was found to have cervical erosion of degree III, and I also have candidiasis.History of previous diagnosis and treatment, as well as effectiveness: Due to the candidiasis, I underwent treatment for five days, and after a one-week interval, I began using Epocel solution directly on the cervix, applying it every four days (already used three times). However, itching still occurs during the premenstrual period.
Question: According to the Epocel instructions, it is not recommended to use more than two medications simultaneously on the same area. Should I stop the Epocel treatment and continue with the candidiasis treatment, or can they be done concurrently? Please advise.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's not that simple to completely treat cervical inflammation. The common types of cervical inflammation we encounter include: cervical erosion, cervical polyps, and cervical hypertrophy. The treatment methods for different types of cervical inflammation vary greatly. If patients who want a complete cure do not adopt targeted treatment methods, they simply cannot be cured, and it will be impossible to. Cervical inflammation patients should still use some professional pharmaceutical treatments. Currently, in this field, integrated Chinese and Western medicine treatment does not lead to drug resistance and has better therapeutic effects. It is particularly effective in alleviating symptoms of pelvic inflammation. It is best to adopt Chinese medicine treatment. Recommended medications include（）, which is highly effective in treating cervical inflammation. Generally, 3-4 courses of treatment are recommended, with 2-3 courses for those with milder conditions. Each course lasts 14 days. Pay attention to hygiene during menstruation and sexual activity, avoid promiscuous sexual behavior, and moderate sexual activity. For young women, twice a week is ideal.
