Why does vaginitis keep recurring

Patient's question:

Symptom Description: The external genital area is itchy, red, and swollen for two days. Past Treatment and Effect: Visited Dalian Hospital four times (recurring every once in a while). Desired Help: What minor details should be paid attention to in daily life.

Doctor's answer:

Improper treatment is one of the important reasons for the repeated occurrence of vaginitis. The onset of vaginitis is mostly related to the imbalance of vaginal flora. When the number of beneficial lactic acid bacteria in the vagina decreases, pathogenic bacteria will multiply in large quantities, leading to vaginitis. When treating vaginitis, many people are concerned about how to eliminate pathogenic bacteria. However, cultivating lactic acid bacteria is equally important. If only antibiotics, vaginal suppositories, or other medications are used, although they can eliminate most pathogenic bacteria, if there is a lack of lactic acid bacteria in the vagina, vaginitis is very likely to "make a comeback."
