Patient's question:
At first, I experienced urinary pain again, a bad odor in the vagina, and more frequent urination. During a gynecological examination, the doctor said I had vaginitis. After treatment, it healed completely. However, a year later, it seems the previous symptoms reappeared, and there was even some itching. What are the causes of vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
Because the female vagina is originally an organ similar to the external environment, if it is not paid attention to for cleanliness in daily life, during sexual activity, or when the body's immunity declines, vaginitis tends to recur repeatedly. This is similar to children getting tonsillitis—the principle is the same. Therefore, since you are experiencing these symptoms, you should have a thorough examination of your vaginal discharge, mainly to identify which type of vaginitis is present so that timely treatment can be provided.In addition, during the treatment of vaginitis, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and worry to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of vaginitis.
