Summary

With the knowledge that VVC is an infectious disease of the genitourinary tract that is common in women of reproductive age, and because of the shortage of non-drug therapies for this condition, this study will aim to evaluate the effect of ultraviolet A/blue LED with a wavelength of 401 ± 5 nm in patients with a clinical manifestation of candidiasis and its ability to prevent recurrence.

Conditions

  • Recurrent Vulvovaginal Candidiasis

Interventions

DEVICE

Blue Light Emitting Diode Therapy

Light-emitting diode (LEDs) as a preferred light source for phototherapy is a semiconductor device that, through the process of electroluminescence, generates light emitted at different wavelengths, causing a differentiation in color and effects.

DRUG

Azole Antifungal

Azole antifungals are a group of medicines that contain an azole ring and inhibit the growth of a wide range of fungi
