How to do the examination for vaginitis?

Patient's question:

These days, I've been experiencing intense itching in my vagina, and I suspect it might be vaginitis. Before going to the hospital for a thorough examination, I would like to have a clear understanding of what tests are involved in diagnosing vaginitis, including the specific procedures and tests. The more detailed the information, the better. Thank you, doctor.

Doctor's answer:

Based on the symptoms you described, it should be a manifestation of vaginitis. If you plan to go to the hospital for a thorough examination, you can make an appointment with the gynecology clinic. It is necessary to have a routine vaginal discharge test, and you can also have a cervical smear test or TCT examination. If vaginitis is confirmed, you need to take medication according to the type of vaginitis under the guidance of a professional doctor. Some types of vaginitis are very stubborn, so it is essential to persist in taking medication for a period of time. During the treatment, avoid sexual intercourse.
