PHARMA QUIZ-BCQ-GUT


ANSWER: d)

DESCRIPTION:
Vaginal candidiasis can be caused by either bacteria or fungi. During the pregnancy having high estrogen levels increases the chance of vaginal candidiasis, which may lead to preterm birth.

With diabetes, if it is  not controlled properly increases the chances of candidiasis and once it spreads it is difficult to control, keeping glucose levels in range is effective in managing candidiasis.

Vaginal candidiasis with fever and abdominal pain indicates that the organism is affecting the kidney and ureters.

Vaginal discharge is a common symptom which does not need referral, whereas in pregnancy, diabetes, fever and abdominal pain in order to prevent the severity associated needs referral.
