Does gynecological inflammation cause female infertility?

Patient's question:

Does gynecological inflammation cause female infertility?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the vagina itself is not a sterile environment. Some pathogenic bacteria are opportunistic pathogens. Some chronic patients, due to a decline in immune function, cause vaginal infections, leading to changes in the vaginal pH, which is unfavorable for sperm survival and activity, resulting in infertility. This is related to the vagina. Of course, it doesn't mean that having vaginitis will definitely lead to infertility, but it is simply unfavorable for pregnancy. Vaginitis is relatively easy to treat, and after treatment, pregnancy can still continue.
