Can women with candidal vulvovaginitis use liquid to clean the vulva?

Patient's question:

In August 2013, discomfort in the external genitalia and vagina, after a gynecologist's examination, was diagnosed as candidiasis.

Doctor's answer:

The consideration you described is candidiasis, which is generally caused by a weakened body and changes in the acidic environment of the vagina, leading to streptococcal infection. It is more common in diabetes, long-term estrogen abuse. It is recommended to actively treat the primary disease, anti-inflammatory and anti-streptococcal treatment, such as topical clotrimazole suppositories, nystatin effervescent tablets, and ketoconazole tablets. Avoid spicy foods, prevent cross-infection between couples, and strengthen physical exercise.
