Can vaginitis also cause female infertility?

Patient's question:

White discharge is too abnormal. At night, inflammation can stimulate vaginitis, which can also cause female infertility.

Doctor's answer:

1. Vaginitis can alter the vaginal environment, inhibiting sperm motility, and inflammatory cells can engulf sperm, weakening their motility, thereby affecting pregnancy or even causing infertility.
2. If a pregnant woman becomes infected, the Candida in the vagina can ascend through the cervix, penetrate the fetal membrane to infect the fetus, leading to premature birth. If the fetus is delivered vaginally, 2/3 of newborns will be affected.
