Patient's question:
I have a fungal vaginal infection, and repeated treatments have not cured it. I usually have discharge that looks like cottage cheese. I don't want to treat it anymore because I feel it won't work. But recently, I want to have a child, so I want to ask if having a fungal vaginal infection can lead to infertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello: The treatment for candidal vaginitis is currently mostly based on drug anti-inflammatory therapy, with antibiotics being the core medications. However, when selecting antibiotics, it is not advisable to act blindly. If overused without proper control, it is possible that the inflammation may not be effectively treated while severely damaging the body's normal functions. It is recommended that you treat the condition before trying to conceive. Wishing you good health.The occurrence of cervical infertility not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo an ultrasound examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
