After drinking yogurt, the mold is gone

In addition to not paying attention to personal hygiene and other reasons, the causes of fungal vaginitis include improper use of medications or picky eating, etc. Drinking yogurt will not cure fungal vaginitis. If you want to treat fungal vaginitis, in addition to developing good hygiene habits, you also need to pay attention to your diet, do not eat spicy or cold foods, and go to the hospital to see a doctor if necessary and take medication under the doctor's guidance.

Why is candidal vaginitis prone to recurring?

First of all, not taking medication seriously and failing to treat it thoroughly after developing candidal vaginitis is an important reason for the recurrence of the disease. After treatment, patients with candidal vaginitis still need to go to the hospital for a gynecological examination and vaginal secretion test after each menstruation, for three consecutive times. If signs of Candida infection are found once during this period, it cannot be considered cured, but rather a relapse or reinfection, and continued treatment is required.

Second, the couple did not receive treatment at the same time: after a woman suffers from candidal vaginitis, she can transmit the pathogen to her husband through sexual intercourse, making her husband a carrier as well. About 10% of men may develop balanoposthitis. If only the woman is treated and the man is not, then even if the woman is cured, she will be reinfected by her husband, causing Candida to be repeatedly "transmitted" between the couple, and the woman's candidal vaginitis will recur.

Third, failure to change and disinfect underwear and towels as required during treatment may also be the cause of Candida reinfection.

Fourth, the human body itself can be a carrier of Candida albicans. When the Candida albicans present in the intestine infects the vagina, it can cause candidal vaginitis. For example, if one has poor hygiene habits and always wipes the vulva from the anus toward the urethra after defecation, the Candida albicans in the intestine may be brought into the vagina, repeatedly causing candidal vaginitis. Therefore, when treating candidal vaginitis, oral medication should be taken at the same time to eliminate intestinal Candida. Moreover, patients need to change their bad hygiene habits.

Fifth, frequent or long-term use of antibiotics repeatedly destroys the restrictive relationship between vaginal flora, allowing Candida to grow vigorously. Such patients should be given antifungal drugs for prevention while taking antibiotics or after treatment.

Sixth, diabetic patients suffer from recurrent candidal vaginitis because of increased acidity in their vagina and long-term glycosuria, which provide favorable conditions for the growth of Candida albicans. Therefore, treating diabetes is the key to reducing the recurrence of candidal vaginitis.

Seventh, they do not pay attention to hygiene and wash their underwear and socks together. Although it is rare for tinea pedis to cause candidal vaginitis, it is not impossible. If the bacteria that causes tinea pedis is Candida albicans, then the above practices will cause self-infection. In addition, frequently using sanitary napkins and toilet paper that do not meet hygiene standards, or having the habit of washing basins, may also lead to recurrent candidal vaginitis.
