Strong fishy smell below

The vagina is a moist environment that is slightly acidic and can easily breed bacteria. Especially before and after menstruation, if the sanitary napkins you use are of poor quality, it will cause vaginal odor and abnormal leucorrhea. You should wash your lower body before going to bed every night using water at about 70 degrees, which can achieve the effect of anti-inflammatory and sterilization. Eating more red dates and longans can protect the vaginal mucosa. Try to avoid strenuous exercise and sexual activity.

Cervicitis is one of the common gynecological diseases, which is more common in women of childbearing age. It is caused by damage to the cervix and invasion of pathogens, including inflammation of the cervicovaginal part and inflammation of the cervical canal mucosa. The cervix is ​​an important line of defense to prevent pathogens from the lower reproductive tract from entering the upper reproductive tract, but the single-layer columnar epithelium of the cervical canal itself has poor resistance to infection. If it is damaged by mechanical stimulation such as sexual intercourse, childbirth, abortion, and surgery, it is more susceptible to infection. Clinically, cervicitis is divided into acute and chronic types, with chronic inflammation being the most common. The main symptoms of acute cervicitis are redness and swelling of the cervix and edema of the cervical mucosa, often accompanied by acute vaginitis or acute endometritis. Chronic cervicitis has many manifestations such as cervical erosion, cervical hypertrophy, cervical polyps, cervical glandular cysts and cervical eversion. Chronic cervicitis has a certain relationship with cervical cancer, so it should be actively prevented and treated. Women over 30 with cervicitis should have regular cervical smears to check for cancer cells.

1. Acute cervicitis

Acute cervicitis is caused by cervical injury due to sexual intercourse, abortion, childbirth, diagnostic curettage, etc., and the invasion of pathogens into the damaged area. Common pathogens include the following:

(1) Sexually transmitted disease pathogens Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis are mainly found in people at high risk of sexually transmitted diseases.

(2) Endogenous pathogens such as Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia coli, Trichomonas, Candida, and Amoeba.

2. Chronic cervicitis

Chronic cervicitis can be a continuation of acute cervicitis or it can be caused by persistent infection with pathogens similar to those of acute cervicitis. Unclean sexual life, decreased estrogen levels, and long-term stimulation from foreign bodies in the vagina can all cause chronic cervicitis. Secondary infection after damage to the cervix due to abortion, delivery, or vaginal surgery may not cause acute symptoms, but may directly lead to chronic cervicitis.
