Patient's question:
I got my period on the 2nd of this month and ovulated around the 7th. On the 14th, I had sex with my boyfriend (he's a new partner, and I'm not entirely sure about his health, but I've always been very cautious). After that, I took the post-coital contraceptive pill, which is effective within 72 hours. After taking it, I faintly remember having a slight pain in one spot in my abdomen for about a day. Later, we had sex again twice. He doesn't like using condoms—once, he put one on halfway through, and another time, he came outside. After the second time we had sex, three days later, my vagina started itching. There were white, cottage cheese-like substances on my vaginal lips, which I cleaned off with cotton swabs. It felt better for a day, but then on the third day, we had sex again, and the itching has persisted until today. Sometimes it's just the vagina that itches, and other times...Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is possible that it could be vaginitis, but it is necessary to clearly diagnose whether it is bacterial vaginitis or fungal vaginitis, as the treatments for these two conditions are different. If necessary, it is best to go to the hospital for examination to identify and confirm the diagnosis. Vaginal itching is a condition that is not easy to relieve. Friends with this condition should maintain a positive attitude and face it with a proactive mindset. Only in this way can they improve their confidence in combating vaginal itching and believe that they will definitely recover.
