How to treat Trichomonas vaginitis

Due to the accelerated pace of life today, many women have reduced resistance and are easily infected with some gynecological diseases, and Trichomonas vaginitis is one of them. The causative bacteria is Trichomonas, and it often recurs if not treated thoroughly. The treatment methods are introduced below.

Treatment of Trichomonas vaginitis:

1. Avoid sexual intercourse

The main transmission route of diseases such as Trichomonas vaginitis is sexual intercourse, so women should try to stop having sex during treatment and avoid close contact before they are cured to avoid repeated infection and incurable diseases.

2. Control blood sugar

If the patient has vaginitis accompanied by diabetes, the vaginal glycogen content and acidity are both high, making it easy for the patient to be invaded by bacteria. Therefore, while controlling blood sugar, you should also pay attention to cleaning the vulva and choose products with a weak alkaline pH value.

3. Application of drug care

Metronidazole is a commonly used drug for the treatment of Trichomonas vaginitis. In addition to local vaginal medication, attention should also be paid to systemic conditioning. The most effective drug is oral metronidazole. However, the side effects of taking metronidazole are also quite obvious, such as nausea, vomiting, and more serious cases such as leukopenia and rash. Once these side effects occur, you should stop taking the medication.

4. Things to pay attention to when going out

Patients with vaginitis should try not to go to public swimming pools, hot springs, baths, etc. to avoid aggravating the infection. In addition, when going to the restroom in a hotel or other public places, do not use a toilet to avoid cross infection.
