Does menstruation have anything to do with vaginitis?

Patient's question:

I had my period on the 1st of last month, but I haven't had it this month yet. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and it turns out I'm not pregnant. Recently, I've had a lot of leukorrhea with a bad odor. Is there a connection between the missed period and inflammation? How should I treat irregular periods and vaginitis? Do I need to go to the hospital for a thorough check-up?

Doctor's answer:

Irregular menstruation is often considered to be related to gynecological inflammation, in addition to endocrine hormone level disorders. Vaginitis is mostly considered to be related to inflammation. It is recommended to consider visiting a hospital for routine gynecological examinations, vaginal discharge tests, and pelvic color Doppler ultrasound. If necessary, it is also necessary to combine with careful examination of six female hormone indicators, and then use medication for anti-inflammatory and menstrual regulation treatment. In terms of diet, it should be light and gentle, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Regular follow-up examinations are necessary.
