Doctor's answer:

Hello, gynecological diseases are generally caused by bacterial infections or an imbalance of the vaginal flora, and they require active treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene, and the diet should be light. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.
During the treatment of gynecological diseases, personal hygiene must be paid close attention. Intercourse is strictly prohibited during treatment, as it can not only affect the therapeutic effect but also potentially lead to cross-infection, worsening the condition. Therefore, intercourse is not allowed during the treatment of gynecological diseases.
