Intervention groups

Description
Intervention group: Violet plant vaginal gel؛ First, by placing a speculum, the shape, consistency, size and color of the vaginal secretions are evaluated, and the results of the examinations and observations will be recorded in the pre-treatment form. Then some of the vaginal discharge is placed on a slide with a swab and examined under a microscope for the presence of motile trichomonas. Violet plant vaginal gel is made by a trusted pharmacist of Ahvaz University of Medical Sciences and a design consultant, in such a way that hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and ethyl cellulose (EC) powders are mixed separately with propylene glycol and triethanolamine. . Then the formula is dispersed in two thirds of water. Methylparaben and extract powder are mixed in the rest of the formula water and finally added to the prepared gel and finally the following tests are performed to measure the prepared gel and the best formulation is selected for conducting clinical studies. Samples of the formulations are stored in an incubator with a temperature of 50 degrees Celsius, a refrigerator and an ambient temperature, and during the storage period, they are examined for color, smell, and consistency on specific days. In order to determine the pH, a mixture of 1 part of gel in 9 parts of water is prepared and the pH of the resulting mixture is determined by a pH meter. After delivering the medicine to the volunteers, they will be taught how to use it and how long to use it, and how to use the applicator. Also, to the volunteers to refer again after one week after finishing the medication to check the effect of treatment and after 4 weeks after finishing the medication to check the recurrence of infection by observation and examination and examination of secretions and registration in the observation and examination form. It will be taught after treatment. Teaching tips such as avoiding sexual intercourse or using condoms during the treatment period and not using other drugs at the same time during the treatment will be taught. The candidate will be asked to record any side effects of the treatment in a checklist. To ensure that the instructions are followed correctly, the researcher will communicate with the patients during the treatment. In the follow-up visit of the patient, in terms of lack of secretions and pain under the heart, burning of mucus and reduction of inflammation of the cervix and vagina, and lack of visibility of flagellated trichomonas parasite under the microscope, it will be checked as an effective treatment, and the result of the observations will be recorded in the observation form.
