There are symptoms of itching and swelling down there, which are most likely caused by vaginitis. Vaginitis is also one of the most common gynecological diseases, and its incidence rate is relatively high. After suffering from vaginitis, patients must go to the gynecological clinic for treatment in time to reduce the impact of the disease on their health. Next, I will introduce to you the causes, symptoms and treatments of vaginitis!

1. Causes

If the ecological balance between the original flora in the vagina is disrupted for any reason, conditional pathogens can cause vaginitis. The vulva and vagina are adjacent to the urethra and anus, and are locally moist and easily contaminated by urine and feces. Women of childbearing age have more frequent sexual intercourse, and the vulva and vagina are the necessary passages for delivery, cervical and uterine cavity operations, making them easily damaged and infected by external pathogens. Young girls and postmenopausal women have low estrogen levels, thin vaginal epithelium, low local resistance, and are easily infected. Common pathogens include Candida, Trichomonas vaginalis, Amoeba, Gardnerella vaginalis, Enterobacter, Salmonella, Staphylococcus, Micrococcus, and Ciliate Fungi.
