Will virgins get gynecological diseases?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Do virgins get gynecological diseases?

Doctor's answer:

Yes. Vaginitis or vulvitis is not uncommon in young girls, especially prepubertal girls, who have no sexual experience. If a girl's family members have such infections, sharing toilets, towels, basins, or even washing machines can lead to the girl becoming infected. Swimming in swimming pools is also one of the risk factors.
If menstruation is delayed by one week or less, it is normal. For girls with a history of sexual activity, if menstruation is delayed by more than one week, the first step is to take a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. Stress, exposure to cold, changes in environment, or endocrine disorders can all cause delayed menstruation.
