Vaginitis, as one of the gynecological inflammations with the highest incidence rate, tortures many women.
This recurrent attack of gynecological inflammation not only affects physical health, but also brings many negative effects on quality of life and mental health.
But in fact, as long as you have a correct understanding of vaginitis, it is not difficult to fight it.
Vaginitis May Lead to Infertility
First, let’s talk about the harm of vaginitis.
In addition to vulvar pruritus, vaginitis may also lead to female infertility.
When you get vaginitis, vaginal flora will be disordered and lose self-defense ability. Bacteria or some microorganisms will ascend along the vagina into the pelvic cavity, which may cause pelvic inflammatory disease.
Pelvic inflammatory disease generally refers to female upper reproductive tract infection, including inflammatory infection of uterus, fallopian tube and ovary.
When serious inflammation occurs, it will affect ovarian ovulation, peristalsis of fallopian tubes and egg picking function, which may lead to inability to conceive or ectopic pregnancy for a long time.
These five points lead to vaginitis infection
In general, these five points are the main factors leading to female vaginitis infection:
1. Sexual aspects
If you don’t pay attention to hygiene in your sexual life at ordinary times, you don’t do a good job of hygiene before and after sexual intercourse, and you have multiple sexual partners, it is easy to induce vaginitis.
Because many bacteria and microorganisms are transmitted through sexual life, failure to pay attention to hygiene or multiple sexual partners will increase the risk of infectious diseases.
2. Daily care
If the tampons and sanitary napkins used during menstruation are not replaced in time, it will provide a good breeding space for bacteria inducing vaginitis.
Also often wear tight pants, chemical fiber underpants are also easy to make women’s private parts impermeable to induce vaginitis.
3. Cleaning
If the vaginal medication or vaginal flushing fluid is not properly used, the original flora balance of the vagina will be broken and vaginitis will occur.
4. Body resistance
Some women’s body resistance is poor or estrogen level drops after menopause, which is also easy to be troubled by vaginitis.
5. Environmental aspects
For example, the weather is sultry and humid, the vulva is often in a humid and airtight environment, and swimming is often not properly cleaned or dried, thus destroying the vaginal disease prevention mechanism, which is easy to lead to vaginal inflammation.
In life, paying more attention to these five aspects can effectively reduce the probability of vaginitis infection.
To deal with vaginitis, we have to do this.
That is: Ask the doctor!
Most of the time, some women cannot correctly judge whether they are infected with vaginitis, so they will choose to let it go and often miss the best time to ask a doctor.
Let’s talk about it. When you encounter what symptoms, you need to ask a doctor.
It can be judged from the following three aspects:
1. Abnormal secretion
The secretion is abnormal in color, yellow-green, purulent and dark yellow.
Secretions are bean curd residue-like, white lumps or pus-like, and foam-like may be accompanied by blood.
The secretion has peculiar smell, rotten eggs or fishy smell.
Step 2: Discomfort
It is mainly vulvar or vaginal pruritus, pain, and even red swelling or frequent urination, urgent urination and pain.
3. Other
If vulva grows vegetations, there is pain or hemorrhage, peeling, vulvar skin is rough and white, pain in the same room, and fever in the lower abdomen, vaginitis should also be taken care of.
When the above three symptoms occur, be sure to ask the doctor in time.
