Patient's question:
I have never had a sexual relationship with a man before, and I haven't had sexual intercourse either. But a few days ago, because of a strange odor in my vagina and some itching around the vaginal opening, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said I had a gynecological disease. What are the possible causes of gynecological diseases?Doctor's answer:
If you have no sexual history, even if you have gynecological symptoms, you still have physiological ones, because women in their reproductive period often experience cervical columnar epithelial fibrosis again due to high estrogen levels in their bodies, which manifests as pseudo-gynecological symptoms. Moreover, women with no sexual history will not see any gynecological issues when they undergo a thorough examination at the hospital, as vaginal examinations cannot be performed to avoid rupturing the hymen. Therefore, if you are experiencing these symptoms, it is likely vaginitis. It is recommended that you use a gynecological cleaning solution to wash your external genitalia and take some medication specifically designed to treat vaginitis at the same time.
