Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis can be transmitted through sexual activity, which is why it is recommended that the partner of a woman with candidal vulvovaginitis also receives treatment. It is suggested to use Dink effervescent tablets. After the patient cleans the external genitalia each night, place one Dink terbinafine hydrochloride vaginal effervescent tablet into the posterior fornix of the vagina. A course of treatment lasts for one week. During the day, you can also use Dink terbinafine hydrochloride spray to apply to underwear to kill potential fungi. Considering the possibility of cross-infection, it is important to emphasize "joint treatment for couples" when treating VVC. Men can soak Dink effervescent tablets in warm water and use them to clean the external genitalia. It is recommended that the patient avoid sexual activity during treatment, pay close attention to hygiene, and continue taking medication for an additional 2-3 days after symptoms disappear to prevent recurrence.
