What to do if a woman has vaginitis and vulvar itching

In fact, many white-collar women who need to sit for long periods of time at work are often more likely to have vulvar itching caused by vaginitis. At this time, it is often because of hunger that one may not go to the hospital for treatment. It is also recommended that candidal vaginitis requires active treatment. At this time, I am actually used to buying medicines at the pharmacy by myself. And what should I do if vaginitis and vulvar itching occur?

Experts say that the medication for candidal vaginitis generally lasts for three courses, and the medication can be stopped only after the menstruation is over and the patient is completely cured after a follow-up examination. If you use the external gynecological suppository Baofukang Suppository, the usage should be to wash the vulva, insert the Baofukang Suppository into the vagina, once a night, 7-8 days as a course of treatment, for three months, and stop using it during menstruation. This is the only way to cure it.

How to choose medication for candidal vaginitis:

1. Do not rely solely on Chinese patent medicines

Some gynecological Chinese patent medicines have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, but they are generally slow to take effect and not very targeted. They are often used as auxiliary treatment for chronic gynecological inflammation and cannot be used as the first choice of treatment. For acute trichomoniasis, fungal and bacterial infections, anti-trichomoniasis and antifungal drugs should be used first. Simply using Chinese patent medicines may delay the disease.

2. Do not abuse vaginal suppositories

As long as there is inflammation, suppositories should be used for treatment. If the treatment is not based on the cause, the condition will be aggravated. For example, in case of acute trichomoniasis or fungal infection, corrosive vaginal suppositories should not be used. If it is acute vaginitis, the use of suppositories may cause the inflammation to spread. However, the effect of drug treatment is not obvious and the disease will recur.

3. Don’t buy medicine according to advertisements

Different types of vaginitis require different medications. Before buying medicine, patients should understand the characteristics of the disease and choose the right medicine. If you are not clear about your symptoms, you should go to the hospital for treatment. The doctor will choose sensitive drugs for treatment based on the infectious pathogens and the patient's physical signs. Do not blindly choose drugs according to advertisements.

4. Do not use antibiotics in large quantities

Some patients start taking antibiotics immediately after learning that they have vaginitis. In fact, excessive use of antibiotics can make bacteria resistant, destroy the balance between vaginal flora, and prolong the treatment cycle. Especially in the case of fungal infection, the use of antibiotics will aggravate the symptoms of infection.

In fact, when choosing a drug, you often need to further check whether you have any side effects of this drug. What needs to be paid attention to is to remind women not to rely too much on drugs and not to eat spicy foods.
