Patient's question:
Today I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was told I have vaginitis, which is caused by both fungi and bacteria and is contagious. How serious is it? How difficult is it to treat? I'm a bit nervous.Doctor's answer:
Bacterial infections are relatively easy to treat, while fungal infections take longer to heal. Comprehensive prevention and treatment can also lead to full recovery. Vaginitis is a common gynecological condition. Once diagnosed, prompt treatment should be initiated. During treatment, avoid sexual intercourse, pay attention to personal hygiene, and sterilize underwear by boiling them. If the condition of vaginitis is severe, patients are advised to seek timely symptomatic treatment and follow their doctor's recommendations. At the same time, it is important to focus on self-care training, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
