Patient's question:
I have a very itchy vagina, sometimes it feels like bugs are crawling inside, and I can't help but touch it. But the more I touch, the itchier it gets. Sometimes I can't even be around my husband, and it makes both of us feel bad. My colleague says this is bacterial vaginosis, but some colleagues say it's vaginal dysbiosis. Are these two the same?Doctor's answer:
Generally, the vaginal area has a normal microbiota, but it can also be affected by external inflammation. After medication treatment, there may be some degree of dysbiosis. It is essential for you to receive comprehensive treatment in a formal gynecological hospital, follow the full course of treatment, and have regular follow-up check-ups. The full course of treatment typically lasts about 10 days, but the specific duration needs to be determined based on your actual condition.Lifestyle care: First, pause the use of topical washes, and drink more water. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
