Women, please pay attention! Gynecological diseases are actually transmitted to you in this way

Nowadays, women are very prone to gynecological diseases, including adnexitis, vaginitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc. So what are the transmission channels of these three gynecological diseases?

How is adnexitis transmitted?

1. Lymphatic transmission route

Enteritis, especially severe colitis, is the main cause of adnexitis spread by lymphatic vessels. Pathogenic bacteria can spread from the colon through lymphatic vessels to the reproductive organs, inducing the occurrence of adnexitis. Therefore, it is important to actively prevent and treat enteritis, and never underestimate or ignore its dangers.

2. Transmission route of appendix

Appendicitis is a major cause of adnexitis. If not treated in time, bacteria will break through the appendix membrane and flow into the right adnexal organs along with the pus. In severe cases, it may even affect the left adnexal organs, eventually leading to an attack of adnexitis.

3. Hematogenous transmission

Tuberculosis, such as pulmonary tuberculosis, is a common cause of adnexitis caused by blood-borne transmission. The tuberculosis bacteria invade the reproductive organs through the blood circulation and induce adnexitis. Therefore, active prevention and treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis can effectively prevent the occurrence of adnexitis.

4. Transmission routes of sexually transmitted diseases

In addition to causing adnexitis through sexual transmission, sexually transmitted pathogens can also enter the female reproductive tract through non-sexual routes. For example, if the pathogens are present in public bathtubs, toilets, bathrobes, etc., they can cause an attack of adnexitis. In daily life, women should pay special attention to non-sexual transmission routes, and in public bathing places, it is best to use their own bath towels and bathrobes and take a shower.

How pelvic inflammatory disease is spread

Spreading upward along the genital mucosa: After the pathogen invades the vulva and vagina, or the flora in the vagina, it spreads along the mucosal surface through the cervix, endometrium, and fallopian tube mucosa to the ovaries and abdominal cavity. It is the main route of infection for non-pregnancy and non-puerperal pelvic inflammatory disease.

Spread through the lymphatic system: The pathogens invade the pelvic connective tissue and other parts of the internal reproductive organs through the lymphatic vessels of the vulva, vagina, cervix and uterine body trauma. It is the main route of infection for postpartum infection and post-abortion infection.

Transmission through blood circulation: The pathogens first invade other systems of the human body and then infect the genitals through the blood circulation. This is the main route of bacterial infection.

Female vaginal candidiasis transmission route

1. If you are not careful, mold in toilets, swimming pools, baths, damp clothes and bedding can also spread to the vulva and vagina, causing candidal vaginitis;

2. The main route of fungal infection is direct transmission through sexual intercourse. If a woman has sex with a man who has fungal infection, she is likely to be infected with the disease.

3. People who use broad-spectrum antibiotics for a long time are prone to mold growth and illness due to the disorder of bacteria and flora in the body;

4. Infections in other parts of the body, such as fungal infections in the mouth and intestines, or fungi on the skin, which may be inadvertently introduced into the vagina after scratching with the hands and contaminated on the fingers;

5. Candidal vaginitis is most common in pregnant women. Because the amount of glycogen in the vaginal epithelial cells of pregnant women increases, the acidity in the vagina increases, the reproduction of fungi will accelerate, so the incidence rate is high.
