Thoughts and Methods of Syndromes Differentiation for the Reconstruction of Vaginal Microecology in Patients with RVVC Based on Xia Guicheng's Harmonizing Pathogenic Qi and Nourishing Healthy Qi

Recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis is intractable to cure but easy to relapse with a long-term lingering course. Based on the perspective of harmonizing pathogenic qi and nourishing healthy qi， Xia Guicheng， a master of traditional Chinese medicine， regarded separating dispersion and mobilizing discharge as the basic therapeutic methods， regulating the overall vaginal internal environment as the foothold and reconstructing the vaginal micro-ecology as the basis， thus promoting the recovery of the dominant bacterial community， such as lactic acid bacteria， and harmonizing the local immune micro-ecology so as to achieve the purposes of cure diseases. In addition， a modified Ermiao granule has been developed and applied in the clinic.
