Patient's question:
Female, 32 years old. Recently, she has found that her private area is always itchy and feels hot, as if it were on fire. Is this a sign of inflammation? Why are women prone to gynecological infections?Doctor's answer:
Women are easily susceptible to gynecological infections due to the structure of their sexual organs. The female abdomen is directly connected to the outside world through the vagina, and the vagina has secretions that help bacteria and other pathogenic microorganisms grow. Additionally, sometimes during sexual activity, the male may not pay attention to the hygiene of the penis, making unmarried women more prone to gynecological infections. Prevention measures: 1. Pay attention to sexual hygiene 2. Timely treatment of lower reproductive tract infections 3. Abstain from sexual activity during menstruation 4. Strictly prohibit the use of unclean menstrual pads.
