Many people have heard of sodium bicarbonate, which is very effective in treating gynecological diseases. However, these methods cannot be used blindly. Even if sodium bicarbonate has a certain therapeutic effect on gynecological diseases, it must be used scientifically and follow the doctor's guidance and advice. 1. Sodium bicarbonate, which is what we commonly call baking soda. Sodium bicarbonate can indeed be used to prevent candidal vaginitis, but sodium bicarbonate is a strong alkaline substance for the human body and will harm the body if used casually. Therefore, if you have gynecological diseases, please do not use medication on your own. You must seek medical attention and follow the doctor's instructions. Do not trust small clinics or folk remedies at will to avoid harming your body. It is not recommended for women to use drugs to flush the vagina and clean the vulva at any time, because the lactic acid fermented by lactobacilli in the vagina can maintain the normal pH value in the vagina, making the vagina self-cleaning, and the healthy skin of the vulva can also prevent the invasion of pathogens. Drugs can only be used during the illness. Long-term use will not only fail to play a preventive role, but may also lead to a decrease in resistance and make it more likely to induce infection. 2 The effect of sodium bicarbonate on gynecological diseases First of all, note that baking soda can be used to treat candidal vaginitis because it can alkalize the vaginal environment. However, it is not recommended to blindly use this drug for treatment before confirming that it is candidal vaginitis. It is generally recommended to first conduct a routine examination of leucorrhea or secretion testing, and then treat it after identifying the pathogenic bacteria, because the treatment plans for different pathogens are different. The baking soda used to treat vaginal inflammation refers to 0.9% sodium bicarbonate, usually 10ml/tube, which is sold in general pharmacies or hospitals. It should be noted that baking soda water should be diluted to a certain concentration before flushing the external vagina, so as to avoid causing an imbalance in the acidity and alkalinity of the vagina, which will make the inflammation more severe. In addition, if the condition has not been relieved, you should seek medical treatment as soon as possible and do not use baking soda water for a long time. 3 Precautions for the use of sodium bicarbonate 1. Sodium bicarbonate should not be used by patients with ulcers that may cause perforation; it should not be used in combination with acidic drugs. 2. When taken orally, a large amount of carbon dioxide gas is produced, which increases the pressure in the stomach. For patients with gastric ulcers, it irritates the ulcer surface and even has the risk of gastric perforation. 3. At the same time, carbon dioxide stimulates the gastric mucosa and causes secondary excessive secretion of gastric acid. Excessive dosage may cause alkali poisoning. Sodium bicarbonate is a common antacid, but we should not blindly believe that sodium bicarbonate can cure gynecological diseases. It is not a panacea. Once you have a gynecological disease, you should go to a regular professional hospital for examination and get medication based on the doctor's advice. Don't use sodium bicarbonate indiscriminately to avoid improper use of the medication and counterproductive results. |
