We are trying to determine if Clotrimazole vaginal tablets with oral Lactobacillus is better than Clotrimazole vaginal tablets in Preventing the Recurrence of vulvovaginalcandidiasis
vulvovaginal candidiasis is common disease in women. Its refractory and high recurrence rate has always been a clinical problem. Some cases even recur several times a year, and those who recur more than four times a year are diagnosed as recurrent vaginal candidal infection Candidiasis, RVVC）。 The common clinical regimen for VVC is to strengthen and consolidate clotrimazole vaginal tablets for up to 25 weeks. However, long-term antibiotic treatment will lead to the decrease of vaginal microflora and the disappearance of inflammation and pathogenic bacteria, which will greatly increase the probability of repeated infection and become a barrier to clinical treatment. If probiotics are added in the treatment, the abundance of lactobacillus can be ensured while antibiotic treatment is carried out, the homeostasis of reproductive tract flora can be reestablished, the defense mechanism can be improved fundamentally, and the re invasion of pathogenic bacteria can be reduced, which will become a new treatment idea and method for radical cure of refractory RVVC.
We hypothesize that Clotrimazole vaginal tablets with oral Lactobacillus is better than Clotrimazole vaginal tablets in Preventing the Recurrence of vulvovaginalcandidiasis.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
