Patient's question:
I have vaginitis, and I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. However, he has syphilis but does not show any symptoms of a chancre on his genitalia. Will I get infected with syphilis?Doctor's answer:
Syphilis has different levels of infectiousness depending on the stage. However, considering the current condition of vaginitis, there is likely to be wounds in the vagina, which may significantly increase the risk of transmission. It is recommended that patients visit the dermatology and venereology department of a regular hospital for follow-up treatment and preventive medication. Vaginitis can cause significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, dietary issues should be given more attention, with a focus on light and nutritious foods to ensure that patients with vaginitis receive professional treatment.
