Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. How can I protect my uterus from infection?Doctor's answer:
Maintain cleanliness and hygiene: First and foremost, pay attention to personal hygiene and develop good hygiene habits. For example, wash and change underwear frequently; use qualified and hygienic sanitary pads; wipe from front to back after using the toilet; when washing the vulva daily, it is best to take a shower to avoid dirty foreign objects entering the vagina, preventing pathogenic bacteria from multiplying and ascending into the uterus, which could cause infection. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's health but can also lead to the development of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal discharge examination. After identifying the cause, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, pay close attention to personal hygiene and maintain clean vulvar skin.
