Patient's question:
Expert,I did a vaginal discharge test a few days ago, and the result showed a cleanliness of degree III, with no mold or trichomonas found. The next day, I did tests for pH and flora, and the results were both negative. However, when the doctor examined me, they said there was quite a bit of inflammation. What could be the reason for this? Do I need to do any further tests?
( I gave birth sixty days ago.)
Doctor's answer:
Your condition is commonly seen in the issue of vaginitis. It is recommended to check a routine vaginal discharge test. Once the cause is identified, symptomatic treatment can be administered. Do not self-medicate blindly, as different types of vaginitis require different medications.Recommendations:
- Underwear and socks should not be washed together. It is best to use a separate laundry container for underwear. After washing, underwear should be exposed to sunlight for drying.
- Both partners should be treated simultaneously to avoid repeated mutual transmission during intercourse, which may lead to prolonged illness.
- Abstain from sexual activity during treatment.
