**Additional Information in the Attached Document**
*What is Vaginal Candidiasis?*
Vaginal candidiasis is an inflammation caused by a fungus (yeast) called Candida. It is a common female genital infection, but proper treatment is essential.
*Typical Symptoms of Vaginal Candidiasis*
Infection causes changes in the amount and appearance of vaginal discharge (resembling cottage cheese or milky, yeast-like), and may be accompanied by itching and redness or swelling of the vulva.
**Lifestyle Precautions**
- If recurrent vaginal candidiasis occurs, inform your partner, as they may be infected. If your partner experiences itching or redness, seek medical attention.
- To prevent infection of your partner, avoid sexual activity during treatment.
- Do not use spermicidal agents during treatment to avoid irritation.
- Refrain from self-washing the inside of the vagina to maintain medication efficacy.
- During bathing, wash the vulva with water only, avoiding soap to prevent irritation.
- Candida bacteria thrive in warm, humid environments; keep the area dry.
- Dry the outside of the vagina thoroughly after bathing or swimming. Change wet clothes promptly.
- Use sanitary products like panty liners frequently and change them regularly.
- Wear breathable cotton underwear.
- Use clean underwear and towels daily; do not share towels with family to prevent infection.
- Candida bacteria are also present in the intestines; wipe from front to back after using the toilet to prevent intestinal infection.
- Avoid scratching the vulva even if it itches, to prevent worsening irritation or spreading infection.
