How to treat fungal trichomonas vaginitis

When it comes to fungal trichomoniasis vaginitis, this disease often troubles many female friends. The occurrence of this disease is often caused by not paying attention to the details of life. It is most important to pay attention to hygiene. Nowadays, the combination of Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of various diseases allows many patients to avoid pain and cure the disease. So how to treat candidal Trichomonas vaginitis? Let’s take a look at the detailed introduction below.

1. Vaginitis

Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vaginal mucosa, submucosal and connective tissue. It is a common disease in gynecological clinics. In normal healthy women, due to their anatomical and biochemical characteristics, the vagina has a natural defense function against the invasion of pathogens. When the natural defense function of the vagina is destroyed, pathogens can easily invade and cause vaginal inflammation. Due to estrogen deficiency, young girls and postmenopausal women have very thin vaginal epithelium, reduced glycogen content in cells, and vaginal pH as high as about 7. Therefore, the vaginal resistance is low and they are more susceptible to infection than adolescents and women of childbearing age.

2. Characteristics of vaginitis

Vaginitis is clinically manifested by changes in the nature of leucorrhea. The main clinical features are itching and burning pain of vulva. Dyspareunia is also common. When the infection affects the urethra, there may be symptoms such as urinary pain and urgency. Common vaginitis includes bacterial vaginitis, Trichomonas vaginitis, Candidal vaginitis, and senile vaginitis. In traditional Chinese medicine, vaginitis mainly falls into the categories of "leucorrhea" and "vulvar itching".

3. Fungal vaginitis

The leucorrhea caused by candidal vaginitis is mostly white or yellow-green, or it is often bean dregs and curd-like. Some patients will have small fragments in their leucorrhea. Candidal vaginitis causes severe itching of the vulva, discomfort, increased vaginal discharge, and may also cause women to experience symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency and pain when urinating.

4. Trichomonas vaginitis

In case of Trichomonas vaginitis, the amount of leucorrhea increases significantly and becomes yellowish white and yellow in color. The leucorrhea contains foam and has a fishy smell. Some women may also have bloody leucorrhea. Trichomonas vaginitis can also cause abdominal pain, back pain, vulvar itching, vaginal bleeding, and some women may also experience pain during sexual intercourse.

5. How to treat candidal vaginitis

The treatment of candidal vaginitis is not difficult. The key is to cure it completely and avoid recurrence. You can use 2% to 4% sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) solution to flush the vulva and vagina once a day, with 10 times as a course of treatment. The purpose is to create an alkaline environment that is not conducive to the survival of Candida alba.

After flushing, you can choose 100,000 to 200,000 units of nystatin (powder, suppository or ointment) and insert it into the vagina once a night, for a course of 10 to 14 days; apply 3% clotrimazole ointment to the vulva once a day, which is also very effective. Underwear should be changed frequently. Used underwear, basins and towels should be boiled in boiling water for 30 minutes or soaked in saturated salt water for 1 to 4 hours for disinfection. This is because Candida has poor resistance to heat and will die within 1 hour if heated to 60°C.

If the disease has not been cured for a long time, you should go to the hospital to check your blood sugar and urine sugar to rule out diabetes; you should also check for Trichomonas infection, because this disease sometimes occurs with Trichomonas vaginitis; those who have been taking large amounts of corticosteroids and broad-spectrum antibiotics for a long time should stop taking the medication; to prevent intestinal Candida infection, you can also take 500,000 to 1 million units of nystatin orally, 3 times a day, for 7 to 10 days as a course of treatment, to eliminate intestinal Candida (because nystatin is not absorbed by the intestine). If other parts of the body are infected by fungi, Sporanox can be taken orally, 100-200 mg each time, twice a day, for 1-3 days; severe cases can take it for 5 days, or even more than 5 days, generally not more than 7 days.

Chinese medicine: When the vulva is extremely itchy, you can sprinkle Bingpeng powder on it. You can also use equal amounts of Indigo, Coptis chinensis, and Milo powder, grind them into a fine powder, add a little glycerin, and mix well. Use a cotton swab to apply it to the vulva and vagina, once in the morning and once in the evening.

Another commonly used prescription: 30 grams of Sophora flavescens, 30 grams of Cnidium monnieri, 30 grams of Sichuan pepper, 30 grams of Alum, 30 grams of Stemona bulbus, 15 grams of Patchouli, 30 grams of Saltpeter, 30 grams of Borax, decoct 2000 ml of the decoction and put it in a mold remover, use it to irrigate the vagina once a day, twice for severe cases. One course of treatment is 10 times.

6. Treatment of Trichomonas vaginitis

The main transmission route of Trichomonas vaginitis is sexual intercourse, so while the female is being treated, the male should also undergo corresponding examinations and treatment, and should stop having sex. Otherwise, if only the female is treated and the male is ignored, or if the two maintain close contact before being cured, it will cause repeated infection and cannot be cured. Women with Trichomonas vaginitis and their sexual partners should boil their underwear and bathing towels in water for ten minutes and dry them in the sun. The basins used by women for washing should also be repeatedly boiled in boiling water and dried in the sun to kill the Trichomonas attached to them as much as possible.

The above is all the information I have collected for you about how to treat fungal Trichomonas vaginitis. During the treatment period, you must pay attention to cleanliness in your life and try not to use antibiotics. Both husband and wife must eat together for the treatment to be effective, and you must also pay attention to the dietary structure. Only by paying attention to all aspects of life can we reduce the occurrence of diseases.
