The obvious symptom of a fungal infection in women, also known as mycosis fungoides, is vulvar itching, which is different from other skin itches and can be difficult to tolerate. The itching is especially severe at night and can affect a woman’s sleep quality, even leading to insomnia. Women with mycosis vaginalis also have abnormal leucorrhea, such as increased leucorrhea, smelly leucorrhea, change in leucorrhea color, and severe vaginal pain during intercourse. If you have mycosis vaginalis, you can go to a hospital gynecologist and use antifungal medication to control the infection.
