Patient's question:
I've had a baby for a year now. Lately, my menstruation has been irregular for several months, always coming five to six days earlier. I also experience lower abdominal pain and have cottage cheese-like discharge from my vagina, coming in chunks. I've been too busy lately to go to the hospital. A friend said it might be vaginitis. What are the symptoms of vaginitis?Doctor's answer:
Vaginitis is accompanied by symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge, frequent urination, urinary urgency, and dysuria. The external genitalia may exhibit varying degrees of itching, burning, or pain. During the acute phase, there may be a sensation of heat in the vagina. Vaginitis is a common gynecological infectious disease caused by different etiologies. In addition, during the treatment of vaginitis, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. Patients must maintain a positive mood and eat properly to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of vaginitis.
