Patient's question:
Married for 4 years, for the past two years, I have frequently experienced vulvar itching, abnormal vaginal discharge, a foul odor, purulent discharge, and cottage cheese-like discharge. After sexual intercourse with my husband, he also develops itchy symptoms, sometimes accompanied by peeling. How should this be treated?Doctor's answer:
The preliminary diagnosis is likely vaginitis. It is recommended to conduct a routine examination of vaginal discharge. Determine the cause and treat accordingly. Do not self-medicate blindly to avoid delaying the condition. Since different types of vaginitis require different medications, it is important to identify the specific type.Recommendations: It is best to use a separate laundry container for underwear. After washing underwear and pants, expose them to sunlight for drying. If possible, perform disinfection treatment. During treatment, avoid sexual intercourse.
