How to deal with vaginitis and urinary tract infections?

Patient's question:

Before, there was a sensation of itching in the private area, but it would go away after washing. This time, after the first half of the month when my period came, the itching started. My stomach also hurts, but it's not the lower abdomen; it's on the left side directly opposite the navel. My stomach is bloated and painful. (But today, I also feel a bloated sensation in the lower abdomen, but it doesn't hurt.) Even when it doesn't hurt, it still feels bloated. From the day before yesterday to yesterday noon, I had frequent urination and a lot of urine. In the afternoon, it wasn't as frequent, and the urine was less, but I still had a constant urge to urinate. Is this something serious?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it seems you have symptoms of itching in the genital area and abnormal urination. In this case, it is still possible that you have a condition like vaginitis and urinary tract infection. It's not very serious, but since your symptoms have persisted for a while, it's advisable to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for examination. You can have tests for vaginal discharge and a routine urinalysis. Based on the test results, symptomatic treatment can be provided. Also, pay attention to maintaining good hygiene in the genital area for improvement.
