How does cervicitis and vaginitis occur?

1. Reflex irritation or injury: The cause of cervicitis is related to sexual life. Of course, abortion, diagnostic curettage and childbirth can cause cervical damage and cause inflammation. Adult women should pay attention to contraceptive measures, avoid or reduce abortion surgery, pay attention to hygiene after childbirth, and avoid infection after childbirth.

2. Pathogen infection: It is a common cause of cervicitis. The key pathogens are: 1) Reproductive tract infection pathogens: Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia mycoplasma. 2) Endogenous pathogens: Staphylococcus, Streptococcus infection, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc. 3) Others: There are Trichomonas and Amebas among the malarial parasites. In special cases, it is caused by chemical compounds and radiation.

3. Compound irritation: Flushing the vagina with potassium permanganate solution or placing suppositories into the vagina are all common causes of cervicitis.

4. Vaginal foreign body and infection: Foreign body infection in the female vagina can cause cervicitis. In this case, be sure to remove the foreign body.
