Patient's question:
Over ten days ago, I started experiencing itching in the external genital area, but I don't know what caused it. So far, I haven't used any medication. I'm pregnant and I'm afraid to use anything, but I'm also worried that delaying treatment might affect the fetus. What should I do now?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in this case, it is still necessary to go to the hospital early to check the routine of vaginal discharge for a clear diagnosis and timely treatment. The possibility of candidal vulvovaginitis cannot be ruled out. If it is vaginitis, it is still necessary to treat it in a timely manner. Under the doctor's advice, choose targeted medication, pay attention to personal hygiene, change underwear daily, wear loose and breathable cotton underwear, and regularly undergo prenatal examinations.
