For treatment of vaginal and cervical infection the doctor may indicate the use of antimicrobials in the form of a tablet, cream or lotion to apply directly to the intimate region.
The treatment time varies from 6 to 10 days and in addition it is necessary to have a good intimate hygiene by correctly washing only the external region of the vagina, preferably using only clean water. It is also recommended to wear cotton panties and not to have intimate contact during the treatment so that the affected tissues can heal.
