8 months pregnant, suffering from candidal vaginitis, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
How should it be treated? Can topical medication still be used? Does it affect the fetus?

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, you can use 2%-3% soda water to clean the external genitalia and vagina with Jieryin. At the same time, change underwear daily and wash and sterilize it together with towels and basins. After the 12th week of pregnancy, follow the above method to clean, gently dry the external genitalia, and place nystatin suppositories deep in the vagina, using them before going to bed every night. If there is vulvitis, you can apply Daktarin cream to the external genitalia. Generally, a course of treatment lasts for 10-14 days. After stopping medication for 7 days, a follow-up check is required. Symptoms should disappear for 2 weeks after the second follow-up check for fungus, and treatment can only be ended upon recovery. After the 35th week of pregnancy, to avoid intrauterine infection, vaginal procedures should not be performed.
Advice: Pay attention to personal hygiene, keep the external genitalia clean and dry, change underwear frequently, and use personal external genitalia utensils exclusively. Wash used underwear, towels, and basins with boiling water and expose them to sunlight for drying.
