What to do if pregnant women have vulvitis and itching

During pregnancy, pregnant women will undergo many physiological changes, including weight gain, change in taste, and excessive secretion of progesterone. However, some gynecological diseases are inevitable, such as increased vaginal discharge and vulvar itching. So what should we do?

1. Lifestyle Adjustment

1. Pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the vulva clean and dry; wash and change underwear frequently, do not share bath towels or bathtubs with others, do not wear underwear made of nylon or similar fabrics, and bath towels and underwear used during illness should be boiled and disinfected.

2. Strengthen health publicity, and conduct regular censuses and treatments for female workers and students in factories, institutions, and residents, especially in dormitories, to eliminate sources of infection.

3. Sexual intercourse is prohibited during treatment, or condoms should be used to prevent cross infection. Vaginal medication and sitz baths should be avoided during menstruation. Women with recurrent episodes should check their husband's urine and prostatic fluid, and repeat the tests if necessary. If positive, both should be treated together.

2. Diet adjustment

The diet should be light, and spicy food should be avoided to prevent the generation of damp heat or damage to yin blood. Pay attention to diet nutrition and strengthen your physical fitness to drive away evil spirits.

3. Mental conditioning

Patients with vaginitis should stabilize their emotions, cultivate their temperament, and receive psychological treatment based on the patient's personality and the causes of the disease, as well as strengthen their exercise, enhance their physical fitness, and improve their own immune function. Actively eliminate the inducing factors and promptly treat various inflammations of the reproductive organs.
