What are the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis?

Many women suffer from gynecological diseases after engaging in unhygienic sexual intercourse. It may not be serious at the beginning, but due to the difficulty in talking about it, many female friends do not choose to go to the hospital for formal examination and treatment. So what are the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis? Below we will explain to you the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis.

What is bacterial vaginosis? When there is an increase in purulent and foul-smelling vaginal discharge, accompanied by vaginal irritation, distension, pelvic discomfort and general fatigue, you should suspect that you have bacterial vaginosis and go to the hospital for a detailed gynecological examination.

There are many other causes of bacterial vaginitis, such as vaginal plugs, cotton balls and gauze left in the vagina or vaginal trauma, which may cause damage and bleeding of the vaginal mucosa and cause bacterial infection; during delivery, abortion and vaginal surgery, if the principles of aseptic operation are violated, it will cause so-called iatrogenic infection and cause vaginitis; chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, adnexitis and other gynecological inflammations may also cause bacterial infection of adjacent genitals; contraceptive devices or ointments, chemical drug stimulation can cause corrosion of the vaginal epithelium, leading to bacterial infection, thus forming vaginitis.

The main symptom of bacterial vaginosis is increased vaginal discharge, which is mostly purulent and has a foul odor. The vagina may experience burning, stinging, and heaviness, which may be accompanied by pelvic discomfort and general fatigue. During gynecological examination, the vaginal mucosa may be found to be flushed, congested, edematous, tender, with increased secretions, purulent secretions and even scabs. A smear examination of the secretions can reveal a large number of pus balls and pathogenic bacteria, but there will be no trichomonas and fungi in the secretions.

The above are some symptoms of bacterial vaginosis. I wonder what female friends who suffer from this disease would think after seeing this. No matter what, remember not to delay treating gynecological diseases. The earlier you receive examination and treatment, the better and faster you will recover.
