Patient's question:
The other day, during a gynecological examination, it was carefully detected that there was a group B streptococcal infection. Is group B streptococcus a gynecological disease?Doctor's answer:
Group B streptococcal infection does not belong to gynecological diseases. It may reappear in the vagina, but it will never cause conditions such as vaginitis. Generally, patients infected with Group B streptococcus do not exhibit severe symptoms. However, if the infection occurs during pregnancy, it must be treated promptly to prevent transmission to the newborn. Patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of infection.
