Patient's question:
I am a 43-year-old woman and don't know why I suddenly got sick. I also feel uncomfortable. Please ask: What are the symptoms of severe vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis is not too serious, and it's best to actively treat it. During this period, sexual intercourse should be avoided to prevent cross-infection. 70-80% of women have experienced vaginitis, though the severity varies. Mild cases may be asymptomatic, while severe cases can even lead to pelvic inflammatory disease and adnexitis, resulting in infertility. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a routine vaginal discharge examination to identify the cause, receive targeted treatment, pay attention to personal hygiene, and maintain clean and dry external genitalia.
