Patient's question:
How to distinguish gynecological inflammation, how to know if it is mold or trichomoniasis? What are the symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Candidiasis vulvovaginitis is caused by an infection with Candida albicans from the mold. The main symptoms include burning pain in the external genitalia, increased vaginal discharge, and the discharge of curd-like or bean curd-like secretions. Therefore, a smear test of the vaginal discharge is performed, and the diagnosis can be confirmed upon the discovery of Candida albicans.The common symptoms of acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) include:
1. Severe, spasmodic lower abdominal pain (usually bilateral);
2. Chills and fever, sometimes accompanied by nausea or vomiting;
3. Menstrual disorders and dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation);
4. Increased vaginal discharge;
5. Difficulty urinating and dysuria (painful urination).
The symptoms of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) include:
1. Few obvious systemic symptoms, sometimes with low-grade fever and increased fatigue;
2. Lower abdominal heaviness, pain, and lumbosacral pain due to chronic inflammation, scar adhesions, and pelvic congestion. These symptoms often worsen after exertion, sexual intercourse, or around the menstrual period;
3. Due to pelvic congestion, patients may experience increased menstrual flow. Ovarian dysfunction can lead to menstrual irregularities, and tubal adhesions or blockages may result in infertility.
