Patient's question:
Recently, I haven't been very careful with my sex life and got pregnant unintentionally. But I used to have vaginitis. Hello, can vaginitis cause a miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis is inflammation of the vagina. Normal, healthy women's vaginas have natural protective functions against pathogens due to the specific anatomical features of their bodies. When the natural protective function of the vagina is destroyed, pathogens can easily penetrate, leading to vaginal inflammation. Women suffering from vaginitis must go to a formal hospital for diagnosis and treatment. It is particularly important to note that abortion can only be performed after the inflammation is resolved. Women with vaginitis should undergo proper treatment for their vaginitis before undergoing an abortion. This bacteria can also directly penetrate the uterine cavity through surgical instruments.
