Patient's question:
What are the effects of pubic lice on the fetus? How should pregnant women with pubic lice be treated? I am looking for help. It's quite worrying when this happens, and I want the condition to improve through treatment.Doctor's answer:
The impact is not significant. The treatment for pubic lice involves removing pubic hair, as well as local washing and applying external ointments. Commonly used medications include:(1) 10% sulfur ointment, applied 2-3 times daily.
(2) 30% stemonin tincture, applied 3 times daily.
(3) 1% lindane (Kwell) for external use, Jinting ointment, and Jidezhi.
(4) Eulifex ointment for external use.
These medications are available at pharmacies. Underwear and pants must be washed immediately and thoroughly, with attention to sterilization.
