Patient's question:
My lower abdomen is always itchy, and besides a lot of odor, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said I had a fungal vaginal infection. After a while, I took medication and went for another check-up. The doctor then said I had anaerobic vaginosis. Is anaerobic vaginosis and fungal vaginal infection the same as a gynecological disease?Doctor's answer:
For bacterial vaginosis and candidal vaginitis, it is not a single disease because the pathogens of these two conditions are different. Bacterial vaginosis is usually caused by bacterial vaginosis, while candidal vaginitis is primarily caused by infection with Candida albicans. Generally, these two conditions can coexist, and it is recommended to use topical medications under the guidance of a local doctor while also taking oral medications. In addition to treating vaginitis, it is advisable to pay attention to diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance immunity and accelerate recovery.
