After engaging in sexual activity, women may inevitably suffer from gynecological diseases due to bacterial invasion of the vagina. Fungal vulvitis is a common gynecological disease. If such a disease occurs during pregnancy, it can be very troublesome because it is unclear how to treat it and whether it will pose a threat to the fetus. So, what should we do if there is fungal infection at 23 weeks of pregnancy?
If fungal vaginitis is detected at 23 weeks of pregnancy, it usually requires local medication treatment under the guidance of a doctor. And it is necessary to adhere to medication and avoid stopping medication randomly in the middle, otherwise it will lead to the recurrence of the condition. Pay attention to the hygiene of the external genitalia and clean them daily. Some couples also engage in sexual activity during pregnancy, which must be noted. It is best not to engage in sexual activity during early pregnancy or when suffering from vaginitis, otherwise it will be difficult to treat and may have an impact on the baby.
In fact, during pregnancy, the pH value in the vagina may change, and the normal vaginal flora is also prone to imbalance, which may lead to vaginitis. One of the more common causes is fungal vaginitis caused by infection with Candida albicans. The main symptoms of fungal vaginitis are itching of the external genitalia, abnormal odor of vaginal discharge, and tofu residue like discharge.
If you feel uncomfortable in your private area, you must first undergo a detailed examination to confirm what gynecological disease is causing it. There are many types of gynecological diseases, and blind treatment will definitely have an impact, especially during pregnancy. Therefore, it is necessary to have a thorough examination before treatment and then receive targeted treatment.
