Patient's question:
Recurrent candidal vulvovaginitis for a year, tried both Chinese and Western medicine.Doctor's answer:
Candidal vulvovaginitis, use alkaline solutions such as 2~4% sodium bicarbonate or soapy water to rinse the external genitalia and vagina, changing the vaginal pH to make it unfavorable for the growth of fungi. After rinsing, insert nystatin tablets or suppositories into the vagina, 100,000~200,000 units each time, once a night, for a course of 10~14 days. Apply 3% miconazole cream to the external genitalia afterward for better results. For stubborn cases, oral itraconazole or fluconazole can be taken to eliminate intestinal candidiasis, or topical miconazole can be used. During treatment, sexual intercourse is prohibited, and clean, disinfected underwear should be changed daily. Follow-up after menstruation.
