The harm of using iodine to treat mold

Povidone-iodine is a must-have disinfectant in people's homes. Many parents will use it to disinfect when their children's bodies are damaged. Some women use iodine tincture to treat gynecological diseases, such as using iodine tincture to treat candidal vaginitis. What are the dangers of using iodine tincture to treat fungal vaginitis? Female friends can only use diluted iodine to clean the vulva, and then put special medicine into the guide for treatment. Let’s learn about it in detail.

If you must use iodine to treat fungus, you can first use iodine diluted in a ratio of 1:10 to rinse the vulva. That is, do not use iodine to clean the vulva completely. You can use clean water to dilute the iodine and then clean the vulva. After rinsing, use Western medicine Daktarin, Niacin and other drugs for another treatment. Note that you should go to the hospital to check the secretions every time you have your period to find out whether the fungal vaginitis has been cured. Treating fungal vaginitis with iodine is just one of the methods. If you do not dilute it with clean water and apply it directly, it will irritate the vulva and cause redness, swelling and pain.

The main active ingredient in iodine solution can indeed kill bacteria in the vagina, but if it is used incorrectly, the harm caused will not only cause problems such as redness, swelling and pain in the vagina, but may also cause greater harm and impact. Therefore, only by dissolving 0.03% in water can it be more conducive to melting and make the chemical properties stable. It is very easy to catch fire under normal storage conditions. Although this has the effect of eliminating many fungal vaginitis, it will also harm the health of the vagina and make it very difficult for the vagina to recover later. This issue must be taken into consideration.

Here we would like to remind women that it is important to terminate the pregnancy before the candidal vaginitis is cured, otherwise they will regret giving birth to a child for the rest of their lives. This is because you cannot have sexual intercourse, let alone get pregnant, during the period of candidal vaginitis. The health of the child after pregnancy is the most important thing that parents need to consider. Therefore, it is better to wait until your body has fully recovered before considering this issue before getting pregnant.
