Can fungal vaginitis cause vaginal bleeding?

Candidal vaginitis generally refers to vulvovaginal Candida infection, which generally does not cause vaginal bleeding.

Vulvovaginal candidiasis is an inflammation of the vulva and vagina caused by Candida infection. As inflammation constantly stimulates the vulvar and vaginal mucosa, it will lead to increased vaginal discharge, and the appearance of tofu-like leucorrhea or curd-like leucorrhea. In severe cases, it will cause a burning sensation in the vagina, as well as pain during urination and even sexual intercourse, but generally will not cause vaginal bleeding. It is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time if they experience symptoms of physical discomfort, and undergo vaginal discharge smear examination, fungal culture examination, etc. to determine the cause, and then symptomatic treatment.

When infected with vulvovaginal candidiasis, patients can use medication according to the doctor's advice. They can use clotrimazole suppositories, miconazole nitrate suppositories, nystatin vaginal suppositories, etc. for local use. Patients with severe symptoms can also take oral medications, such as miconazole nitrate capsules, fluconazole capsules, Fuyankang capsules, etc. During the treatment of the disease, pay attention to local hygiene, change underwear frequently, do not have sex for a short period of time, adjust your diet, avoid eating greasy, spicy, and irritating foods, such as fried dough sticks, fatty meat, chili peppers, mustard, etc., to avoid aggravating the condition.

Use medications strictly according to the doctor's advice, avoid the abuse of antibiotics and hormone drugs, and avoid side effects of drugs.
