How can one determine if a gynecological condition is serious?

Patient's question:

Because I'm in a long-distance relationship with my girlfriend, it's hard to see her. Last month, I visited my girlfriend, and it happened to be her menstrual period. I couldn't resist and had sex again. As a result, this month, her menstrual period has been intermittent, always not improving, and her vulva has been itchy. After a thorough check-up, the doctor said she had a gynecological disease. How can I know if the gynecological condition is serious or not?

Doctor's answer:

Having sex during menstruation can easily lead to gynecological inflammation and menstrual cramps. If you experience recurring external genital itching and continuous menstruation, which may indicate gynecological inflammation, it is recommended to consult a doctor for appropriate medication under guidance to address the symptoms. The condition should stabilize quickly. It is also important to drink plenty of water, change underwear frequently, and avoid sexual intercourse during menstruation in the future.
For gynecological patients, in addition to active treatment, it is necessary to pay attention to maintaining deep sleep in daily life. Sufficient deep sleep can help you recover from the disease more quickly.
