Is gonorrhea vaginitis a sexually transmitted disease?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower abdomen, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Is gonococcal vaginitis a sexually transmitted disease?

Doctor's answer:

Gonococcal vaginitis refers to vaginitis caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The causative agent, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, is transmitted through unprotected or promiscuous sexual intercourse. There are also a few cases where it can be indirectly transmitted by wearing swimwear infected with gonococci or through contaminated bathtubs, sitz baths, etc. It is recommended that you use Baofukang suppositories for treatment. The occurrence of gynecological inflammation not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for a vaginal examination to identify the cause and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to dietary regulation in daily life, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
