Patient's question:
Medical history: Two years ago, I had a fungal vaginal infection. What is vaginitis? Is this result vaginitis? In the summer of 2008, a gynecological examination was normal. In December 2008, due to asthma treatment, I received intravenous fluids for 10 days, and then symptoms of fungal vaginal infection reappeared. From January to March 2009, I underwent vaginal medication treatment. My last menstrual period started on March 20th, and by March 22nd, the flow had already decreased significantly. At this time, my husband returned from being away, and insisted on sexual intercourse. During intercourse, I felt severe vaginal pain. The next two days were less painful, but I was troubled by the possibility of transmission. On March 28th, I went to the hospital for a gynecological examination. The results are shown in the report, and a colposcopy was also performed. The doctor recommended intravenous fluids and physical therapy. Since I didn’t have other discomforts, such as itching, abnormal odor or color of vaginal discharge, or only mild tenderness upon touch, I didn’t follow the doctor’s advice.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Bacterial vaginosis can be divided into Haemophilus vaginalis vaginosis, Corynebacterium vaginodis, Bacteroides vaginalis vaginosis, Gardnerella vaginalis vaginosis, etc. This condition is caused by a mixed infection of vaginal Gardnerella and some Bacteroides. It can be transmitted through sexual contact. Under normal circumstances, the flora in the vagina is relatively balanced, and the pH is well-maintained. This environment is very important for sperm to temporarily reside and pass through. Once this environment is destroyed, it is easy to experience infertility again.
