Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with amoebic vaginitis, and now I have severe itching in the external genital area. In addition to a burning sensation, there is also some purulent discharge from the vagina. Recently, I have been experiencing nausea and vomiting. I haven't had any sexual activity in the past year and don't know how I got this disease.Doctor's answer:
Amoebic vaginitis is caused by the transmission of amoebic trophozoites. It can be contracted by drinking water and food contaminated with cysts of the industry. After being infected with amoebas, not everyone will develop the disease. Whether the disease manifests depends on the body's resistance level, the number of trophozoites, and the virulence of the amoebic strain. Most amoebas in the reproductive tract originate from trophozoites in the intestinal tract, with very few cases being transmitted through sexual contact. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with vaginitis need to pay attention to maintaining deep sleep throughout their lives. Only with sufficient deep sleep can you help yourself recover from this disease as soon as possible.
