Can vaginal candidiasis cause other diseases?

Candidal vaginitis generally refers to vulvovaginal candidiasis. Whether vulvovaginal candidiasis can cause other diseases should be judged based on the severity of the disease and the duration of the disease. If the disease is mild and the course of the disease is short, it generally will not cause other diseases, otherwise it will cause other diseases.

1. Will not cause other diseases:

Vulvovaginal candidiasis is a vaginal disease caused by infection with Candida. Candida will overgrow in the vagina and invade the vaginal mucosa, causing dregs of vaginal discharge, accompanied by vaginal itching and vaginal odor. If the patient's condition is mild, with only slight discomfort, timely treatment after the disease, a relatively short course of disease, and good personal care during the treatment process, the condition will generally improve after a period of time and will not cause other diseases.

2. It can cause other diseases:

If vulvovaginal candidiasis is not treated in time, the treatment time will be delayed, which will prolong the course of the disease and cause symptoms such as vulvar burning and vaginal itching. If personal care is not done during this period, the inflammation will infect the uterine cavity and easily induce cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis and other diseases. If you have sex during this period, it may also cause balanitis. If you suffer from vulvovaginal candidiasis, you must actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. You can use drugs such as clotrimazole suppositories, miconazole nitrate suppositories, and nystatin vaginal suppositories under the doctor's guidance.

During the treatment process, you should regularly wash the vulva with warm water, wear loose and comfortable underwear, and develop good living habits to help recover from the disease.
