Common treatment misunderstandings of vaginitis

What are the common misunderstandings in the treatment of vaginitis? I believe many people have this question. Many patients easily fall into misunderstandings when treating vaginitis, which is very unfavorable for their treatment. Let us learn about the misunderstandings in the treatment of vaginitis .

1. Simply relying on Chinese patent medicine for treatment is a misunderstanding in the treatment of vaginitis. Most gynecological Chinese patent medicines have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, and can achieve good therapeutic effects, but they are slow to take effect and not very targeted. They are generally used as auxiliary treatments for chronic gynecological inflammation and cannot be used as the first choice of treatment. In the case of acute trichomonas, fungi, and bacterial infections, anti-trichomoniasis and antifungal symptomatic drugs should still be the first choice. Using Chinese patent medicine blindly may delay the condition. When using Chinese medicine for treatment, it is necessary to treat the disease according to syndrome differentiation. This is the only way to better treat the disease.

2. Long-term use of various lotions to clean the lower body and flush the vagina. Some women use various lotions to clean the lower body for a long time, and some women even use tap water to flush the vagina when bathing. These are not advisable. The female vagina is an acidic environment with a self-cleaning effect. Long-term use of various lotions to flush the vagina will kill the vaginal bacteria that are beneficial to the body, reduce local resistance, and increase the chance of infection. For daily cleaning, you can use a weakly acidic female care solution with a pH of 4.

3. Blindly buy medicine according to product advertisements. There are many types of vaginitis, and different vaginitis uses different medicines. Therefore, before buying medicine, patients should understand the type of disease they suffer from and choose the right medicine. If they are not sure, they should go to the hospital for treatment. The doctor will choose sensitive drugs for treatment based on the infected pathogens and the patient's physical signs. At the same time, the doctor will also tell the patient the correct method of medication and course of treatment to avoid drug resistance and recurrence of the disease. This is also a misunderstanding in the treatment of vaginitis.

4. Unauthorized use of large amounts of antibiotics. Many patients start taking antibiotics as soon as they hear that they have vaginitis. In fact, the direct consequence of excessive use of antibiotics is that the bacteria develop drug resistance, destroy the balance and restriction relationship between vaginal flora, lead to vigorous growth of fungi, and continuously prolong the treatment cycle, and the disease cannot be effectively treated. Especially when using antibiotics for fungal infections, it will aggravate the symptoms of infection.
