Introduction
Mycotic vaginitis usually refers to vulvovaginal candidiasis, an inflammation of the vulva caused by Candida infection, primarily manifesting as vulvar itching and increased vaginal discharge. Treatment mainly includes general management, topical medications, and systemic antifungal drugs. Additionally, washing or fumigating the affected area with traditional Chinese herbal decoctions may also have certain therapeutic effects on vulvovaginal candidiasis.

Fungal vaginitis usually refers to vulvovaginal candidiasis, an inflammation of the vulva caused by Candida infection. The main symptoms include itching of the vulva and increased vaginal discharge. Treatment primarily involves general management, local medication, and systemic antifungal drugs. Specific details are as follows:

1. General Management

It is recommended to maintain personal hygiene, frequently change underwear, avoid wearing tight synthetic undergarments, and wash daily items with hot water. Broad-spectrum antibiotics, estrogen, and similar medications should be discontinued promptly. The vulva may be cleaned with alkaline solutions or used for sitz baths; however, douching inside the vagina is not recommended.

2. Local Medication

Due to significant individual differences, there is no absolute best, fastest, or most effective drug in clinical practice. Doctors will select appropriate medications based on the patient's condition, such as topical clotrimazole cream or miconazole nitrate cream.

3. Systemic Antifungal Therapy

For unmarried women or those unwilling to use local treatments, antifungal medications such as fluconazole tablets may be taken orally as directed by a physician.

In addition, under medical guidance, traditional Chinese herbal decoctions may be used externally for fumigation and washing, which can also have certain therapeutic effects on vulvovaginal candidiasis. It is recommended to visit a gynecology department at a hospital for proper diagnosis, strictly follow medical advice when taking medications, and understand potential adverse reactions and contraindications before starting treatment.
