Patient's question:
For nearly two weeks, every time I had sex, I felt some pain in my vagina, and my vaginal discharge increased and turned yellow. After examination, the doctor said I had cervicitis. But my husband and I are very careful about hygiene, so how could I get cervicitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are many causes of pain. Various diseases of the reproductive and urinary systems, as well as congenital deformities, can all cause it. A typical condition is the presence of endometrial nodules on the ligaments near the posterior fornix of the vagina. Inflammation in the pelvic cavity can lead to adhesions between abdominal organs and visceral peritoneum. Pain can occur when vaginal lubrication is insufficient. Pain can also be caused by inflammation and adhesions of pelvic organs in women, local scars, cervicitis, endometritis, cysts or tumors of the ovaries, or vaginismus. It is recommended to visit a hospital for timely examination and then receive treatment based on the specific symptoms.Suggestions:
The white discharge issue you mentioned is normal—it should be white, transparent, and odorless. Based on your description, vaginitis and cervicitis could be the causes, possibly related to poor hygiene. It is recommended to wash underwear frequently. Wishing you good health.
