Patient's question:
Vaginitis hasn't improved, and now I have mild lower left abdominal pain. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
You may have chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) caused by vaginitis. It is recommended that you visit a gynecologist for a thorough examination. Only by first treating your PID can you become pregnant in a healthier condition. There are many treatments for vaginitis, but since symptoms vary among patients, the diagnostic methods used also differ. Therefore, it is advised that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as symptoms are noticed. Additionally, personal hygiene habits should be paid attention to—underwear should be boiled and exposed to sunlight to kill germs.
