Patient's question:
My gynecological inflammation has been treated for a month, but when I went for a check-up, the doctor said I still need to continue the treatment. I have been applying medication and cleaning the vagina every day, never missing a single time. Now, I'm really tired of applying the medication. When the treatment started, they said it would be fine in a month, but it still needs to be treated.Doctor's answer:
Most patients will see symptoms improve or disappear quickly after local medication treatment. However, if they stop taking the medication intermittently during the course of treatment, it will instead delay the healing process.Recommendation: Patients should never stop taking the medication on their own. Instead, they must follow the doctor's advice and complete the full treatment course. Medication can be temporarily paused during the menstrual period. Only when three consecutive gynecological examinations and microscopic tests of vaginal discharge are all normal can the condition be considered fully cured.
