Patient's question:
I went to the doctor a few days ago because I had abnormal leukorrhea and some itching in my vagina. The doctor said I had a gynecological disease and needed medication to treat it. I find this very strange. I haven't divorced yet, nor have I had sexual relations, and I'm usually quite hygienic. How could I get this disease, which is more common among divorced women?Doctor's answer:
The reasons for gynecological diseases are several. Since you are not divorced, there are three reasons for getting sick:1. Not paying enough attention to personal hygiene during menstruation can easily lead to gynecological diseases.
2. Being too meticulous (though it’s not that attention is bad), referring to excessive washing and using cleaning agents that damage the pH balance in the intimate area, leading to an imbalance and making it easier to get gynecological diseases.
3. Going to public places, such as hot springs or saunas, can also transmit infections.
There are several treatments for gynecological diseases. However, since the patient’s condition varies, the treatment methods will differ. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek a diagnosis as soon as possible to find the right treatment.
