Why does vaginitis always recur?

Patient's question:

I always can't treat it well, I'm very annoyed. Why is vaginitis prone to occur?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, a common reason is the lack of standardized medication and incomplete treatment. Generally, the treatment for vaginitis requires a certain course of medication, and the stabilization of symptoms like itching often becomes apparent within one or two days of starting treatment. Many patients then mistakenly believe they have recovered and stop taking the medication on their own, ignoring the doctor's instructions about the duration of treatment. In addition to many patients not being too concerned about follow-up tests after medication, in fact, vaginitis must be re-examined to confirm if it has healed naturally. The failure to remove the underlying causes of the illness is also a reason for the recurrence of vaginitis.
