Can I have sex if I have candidal vaginitis?

Having sex at this time will cause friction and aggravate congestion, leading to worsening inflammation. It may also lead to direct bacterial transmission, and both men and women will become ill. In addition, it will make their cervix susceptible to infection. Therefore, try not to have sex during the period of candidal vaginitis.

3 reasons why you can’t have sex with vaginal candidal infection

1. After women suffer from candidal vaginitis, symptoms such as vaginal redness, swelling, and bleeding will appear. If they have sexual intercourse, the frequent friction between the penis and the vagina may cause vaginal congestion and inflammation, which will aggravate the inflammation.

2. Candidal vaginitis can be transmitted through sexual intercourse. The pathogens can invade the male's urethra. The male infection is often asymptomatic and easily overlooked. After the female is cured, the pathogen can be transmitted to the female through sexual intercourse, thus causing repeated attacks of candidal vaginitis in women and long-term treatment failure.

3. The vagina is a woman's sexual organ, and is adjacent to the urethra and anus. If you do not pay attention to personal hygiene and sexual hygiene, it is easy to be invaded by bacteria and other pathogens and cause infection and inflammation. For example, unclean oral sex and touching by the man during sexual intercourse can cause bacteria to enter the female vagina, leading to aggravated inflammation.

Patients with candidal vaginitis should pay attention to the following matters

1. Generally, try to take as few antibiotics as possible to avoid disrupting the normal balance of vaginal flora.

2. Diabetic patients must pay attention to blood sugar control, because high blood sugar is conducive to the growth of mold and can easily lead to recurrence of vaginitis.

3. It is best to wear loose and breathable clothes, and avoid tight pants, jeans and other clothes. In addition, underwear should preferably be made of cotton and dried in the sun after washing.
