Patient's question:
Female, 29 years old, diagnosed with vaginitis after examination. After using multiple courses of medication, the external genital area still feels a bit itchy, and the vaginal discharge has always been like cottage cheese. Please tell me, what are the different types of vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal inflammation comes in many different types, including non-specific vaginitis, trichomoniasis, bacterial vaginosis, and atrophic vaginitis. Gynecological diseases do not affect every woman, and with proper personal hygiene, vaginal inflammation can be prevented. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their condition to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against cold and keep warm, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
