Patient's question:
After having sex with my boyfriend, I started experiencing itching in my lower body. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said I had inflammation and a fungal infection. My boyfriend is also itchy. What could be the reason? Is there a way to treat it? What caused it? Thank you!First follow-up question: We had sex in a hotel. Could the bedding be contagious?
Second follow-up question: We are both virgins.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, using Yixi liquid to clean the perineum for vaginitis cannot be eradicated. It is best to use vaginal medication, and it is not advisable for both partners to use medication simultaneously. Because candidal vaginitis is contagious, it is recommended that both partners must be treated simultaneously to avoid recurrence. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided, and it should also be noted to maintain cleanliness in future sexual activity.
