Can you use gynecological inflammatory drugs during your period?

Patient's question:

Since my period arrived two days ago, I went to the hospital today to get a full course of oral medication and a cleaning solution for gynecological inflammation. Will using them now affect the effectiveness? What is the best time to take the medication?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, in this case, during the menstrual period, there is no need to use medication temporarily inside the vagina. You can wait until 3 to 7 days after the menstrual period has ended before continuing to use antifungal medication. You can use sodium bicarbonate solution to clean the external genitalia and vagina, while also applying clotrimazole locally and taking fluconazole orally. Continue treatment for three menstrual cycles.
Additionally, maintaining good hygiene is very important. You can also take Fuyinkang tablets or Gufqianqian tablets. It is also important to pay attention to sexual hygiene.
