Patient's question:
Health consultation description: It has been a year. Last week, I went to the hospital. After the examination, it was said to be candidal vulvitis. The doctor prescribed fluconazole, in addition to a vaginal wash. Besides one topical medication, after finishing the medication, I felt itchier, mainly at night. No sexual activity.Doctor's answer:
Candidiasis is a common gynecological condition caused by a fungal infection. In terms of treatment, it is recommended to first alter the pH level of the vagina, such as by using alkaline solutions to rinse the vagina. A 2% to 4% baking soda solution can be used to change the environment in which the pathogens thrive. Then, after rinsing the vagina and external genitalia with a 2% soda solution, insert one vaginal suppository and alternate treatments for a course of 7 days. Additionally, anti-inflammatory medication can be taken concurrently for treatment.
