What causes vaginitis?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing vaginal itching again. When I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, I was diagnosed with four vaginal conditions. How could I get vaginitis at such a young age, and I'm not even sexually active? How does vaginitis occur? How should it be prevented?

Doctor's answer:

Vaginitis can lead to symptoms of vaginal itching and discomfort recurring. It is generally caused by sexual transmission. If you have not had sexual activity, it may be related to poor hygiene or the use of antibiotics leading to vaginal flora imbalance. If you have vaginitis, timely anti-inflammatory treatment is necessary. If you have not had sexual activity, it is generally recommended to use topical solutions and oral medications for treatment, avoiding vaginal medication.
In addition, during the treatment of vaginitis, apart from symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary habits and psychological state are also very important. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of vaginitis.
