Mycosis vaginalis, also called Candida vaginitis, has a high incidence in gynecology, second only to trichomoniasis, and is an inflammatory disease caused by a fungus called Candida albicans, with a few cases caused by three other fungi (both Candida smoothus, Candida subsmoothus or Candida tropicalis). Mycosis fungoides is a relatively common disease in gynecology, mostly seen in young girls, pregnant women, diabetic women and women who have been treated with higher doses of estrogen after menopause.
The symptoms are not very serious, mainly itching and pain, but because the affected area is intimate and sensitive, it is not convenient to scratch and cannot be scratched excessively, therefore, it brings deep trouble to women. Many women are not cured for a long time or have recurring problems, so that they become afraid of talking about “mold” later. In fact, mycotic vaginitis is not as terrible as we think, but in the process of treatment, many details are ignored, into some misunderstandings, resulting in the condition of the prolonged.
1. Diet is uncontrolled
During the illness, you should eat more vitamin-rich foods and alkaline foods, such as fruits, cereals, vegetables, etc.. Many patients still “meatless” during the disease, every day without beef and mutton, tobacco and alcohol, high-sugar food and spicy food, not knowing that meat, cigarettes in the nicotine and sugar are acidic, and the acidic body environment to Candida albicans provide a large number of breeding ground, and the stimulating effect of spicy food and alcohol can significantly aggravate Itching symptoms.
The so-called “disease hotbed, and the stimulating effect of spicy food and alcohol can significantly aggravate the itching symptoms. The so-called “disease hotbed, and the stimulating effect of spicy food and alcohol can significantly aggravate the itching symptoms. The so-called “disease from the mouth”, that is, during the disease “greedy mouth” reluctance to avoid the female friends.
2, conditioning is not the same as reducing activities
Many women are reluctant to exercise after the disease and sigh at home, which not only aggravates the disease, but also reinforces negative feelings that are not conducive to treatment. The Chinese medicine believes that mycosis fungoides is caused by “damp heat in the body, and external poisonous evil”, so proper activity can not only “remove damp heat” and “detoxify evil”, but also strengthen the immune system, relieve mental stress and regulate emotions. At the same time, moderate exercise promotes blood circulation and increases vaginal “breathing”, which is good for relieving the disease.
3. Unauthorized medication
There are many different kinds of vaginitis, and the medication for different kinds of vaginitis should be determined by the doctor after examination. However, in the clinic, doctors encounter many cases of women who have vaginitis and go to pharmacies to buy treatment by themselves. Some of them buy a lot of medicines, such as oral, suppositories, lotions and even antibiotics, but they are not cured for a long time. Some women blindly use the so-called “prescriptions”, hoping to take shortcuts to cure the disease faster, and the result is often the opposite.
When treating, you should follow the doctor’s advice and use regular medication, such as Dacronin plugs, Clotrimazole vaginal tablets, Fluconazole, etc. in Western medicine, and Chinese medicine, such as Yin itch to dispel mold. The former has a very good anti-inflammatory and anti-itch effect, and the latter can assist in regulating the condition. However, in order to completely cure mycosis vaginalis, on the one hand, contact with professional doctors and listen to their medication methods and cure standards, on the other hand, patients are required to adhere to the treatment and review regularly, don’t be afraid of trouble.
4. Stopping medication without permission
Vaginitis should be seen in hospital in time. During the treatment process, do not stop the medication at will when the symptoms improve a little, but in fact, it is not cured, and as a result, the treatment stops and stops and goes back and forth for several months before finally coming to the hospital. Due to the humid weather, recurrent complex mycosis vaginalis is also very common. This disease should be treated regularly and according to a course of treatment.
5. Hygiene vices
Mycosis fungoides is not something that should be used in a bath tub, and you should not share bath tubs and bath towels with your family to avoid cross-infection. Washing clothes, especially underwear, should never be done in a washing machine because the bacteria in the machine itself, not to mention the mold on the underwear, can also infect clothing and cause infection to yourself and your family. Therefore, underwear must be washed separately and dried separately, preferably in the sun.
6. Sexual life
Mycotic vaginitis is not a major disease, but it is a vaginal inflammation caused by Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans and other candida, and is a contagious disease.
Many patients often complain about relapse after treatment. The reason for this, the doctor explained, is that when the woman has the disease, the pathogens are transmitted directly to the man through sexual intercourse and then to each other, creating what is known medically as the “ping-pong effect. If mycosis vaginalis occurs repeatedly, you should pay attention to whether the male partner has any discomfort or related symptoms, and if necessary, the couple should be treated together.
7. Inappropriate use of pads
Many young women often use pads in order to keep their underwear clean and free of secretions, and are jokingly called “lazy girls” by gynecologists. But the normal environment of a woman’s vagina itself is weak acid . But the normal environment of women’s vagina itself is weak acid . But the normal environment of women’s vagina itself is weak acid . But women’s vagina itself is a weak acid environment with normal flora multiplying to maintain the normal environment of the vagina. Using pads can lead to a flood of certain bacteria, which in turn can lead to vaginitis.
Experts warn that women can use pads before and after menstruation or when they are not convenient to clean, such as when they travel, but it is better not to use them at other times, but to change clothes and clean the vulva. In addition, after using sanitary napkins or pads during menstruation, you should wash them every day.
8, underwear selection
Tight-fitting chemical fiber underwear will make the vagina local temperature and wet increase, increasing friction, which is the mold hand to hand “living” environment! Cotton panties are breathable and absorbent, and can ensure the normal “breathing” of the vagina, so use cotton panties!
9. Excessive cleaning
Frequent use of acidic gynecological cleansers and pads create a humid and acidic environment for mold to grow.
The treatment of mycosis vaginalis is a comprehensive process of adjusting or changing lifestyle habits and requires a sustained battle on our part.
