It may be monilial or mycotic vaginitis caused by fungal infection. Its incidence rate is higher than that of Trichomonas vaginitis. In medicine, fungal infection is called Candida infection, so fungal vaginitis is also called Candidal vaginitis.

Treatment:

1. Change the acidity and alkalinity of the vagina, such as flushing the vagina with alkaline drugs, or flushing the vagina with 2-4% soda solution to change the living environment of mold.

2. Administration of fungicides:

(1) Nystatin vaginal suppository (containing 250,000 U of nystatin) is inserted deep into the vagina once in the morning and evening or once every night for 2 weeks.

(2) Take 500,000 U of nystatin orally, 4 times a day.

(3) Apply compound nystatin cold cream topically twice a day.

(4) Take ketoconazole 400 mg orally, twice a day for 5 days.

(5) Trichomycin. For details, see Treatment of Trichomonas vaginitis. In addition, oral administration of clotrimazole or clobendazole 0.5-1g 3 times a day, or topical application of 1-5% ointment, cream or lotion 3-4 times a day, also has good therapeutic effects.

(6) Topical application of 1-2% gentian violet solution is a long-standing treatment method that is very effective and widely used, but it has the disadvantage of staining underwear.

Pregnant women with candidal vaginitis may recover after delivery, but the newborn is at risk of infection, so timely treatment is still needed, preferably with local medication, using the same method as above.
