Patient's question:
The year of getting married, I gave birth to a child, and was diagnosed with vaginitis. I have been undergoing treatment ever since. The main symptoms now are: yellow-green discharge with a foul odor, and severe pain with my husband during intercourse. Which is more serious, mold or bacteria?Doctor's answer:
Bacterial vaginosis and candidal vaginitis are not very serious gynecological conditions, but both are quite troublesome. They are prone to recur even after treatment, especially for married women, making the condition more severe. You should go to the gynecology department of the hospital to check what bacteria are causing it so that you can receive targeted treatment. If effective antibiotic treatment is provided, this condition is not difficult to treat. During treatment, avoid sexual intercourse, change underwear daily, and maintain cleanliness, ventilation, and dryness of the external genital area.
