Do couples need to treat candidal vaginitis together?

1. Fungal vaginitis generally refers to vulvovaginal candidiasis. Vulvovaginal candidiasis is usually treated by the couple together.

2. The cause of vulvovaginal candidiasis may be related to excessive vaginal cleaning and irregular underwear changes. Vaginal itching may occur after the disease occurs, and some patients may also experience symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge and leucorrhea odor. When the above symptoms occur, you should go to the gynecology or obstetrics and gynecology department of a regular hospital in time, and usually take medication under the guidance of a doctor. Common drugs include Baofukang suppositories, Honghe Fujie wash, itraconazole capsules, etc. Because this disease may be transmitted through sexual transmission, in order to achieve better treatment effects, couples should be treated, and the patient's sexual partner also needs to use the same medication as the patient. During the recovery period of the disease, they should also avoid the same room, which can reduce the probability of cross-infection and reduce the probability of recurrence of the disease.

3. While cooperating with the doctor's treatment, you should also pay attention to maintaining good living habits, pay attention to personal hygiene, change underwear frequently, and wash the genital area frequently with water. In order to make the therapeutic drugs work better, you should also pay attention to maintaining good eating habits and avoid eating spicy foods such as peppers, onions, ginger, garlic, etc., so as not to affect the absorption of drugs.
