What should I do if I have vaginitis after medication-induced abortion?

Patient's question:

After I had a medication abortion last July, I have had vaginitis until now. Can I have sex or have children? What should I do if I have vaginitis after a medication abortion?

Doctor's answer:

The vagina, being connected to the outside world, is easily prone to bacterial growth. During the menstrual period, changes in the vaginal environment can also accelerate bacterial growth. Additionally, there is a small amount of bacteria naturally present in the vagina, and local white blood cells are produced to thoroughly eliminate bacteria. Vaginitis is very common. In the coming days, if possible, sun the underwear and then use some gynecological cleaning agents to wipe the vagina, apply medication to the vagina, and use some medicinal treatments. After a thorough examination at the hospital, follow the doctor's advice. Regular check-ups: Even without any discomfort, it is recommended to have regular check-ups, preferably an annual comprehensive gynecological health examination.
