Puerperal vaginitis

The postpartum period is the confinement period, which is the month after a woman becomes pregnant. This month is particularly important for women, because during this period, women need to adjust their bodies. If you don't take good care of yourself during this period, you will have various health problems. For example, postpartum vaginitis is very common. Here we will introduce you to the relevant knowledge about how to treat vaginitis!

1. What is postpartum vaginitis

Postpartum vaginitis is an inflammation caused by vaginal infection after a woman gives birth, and is more common in normal vaginal deliveries. Postpartum women suffering from vaginitis often experience uncomfortable symptoms such as vulvar itching and burning pain, which poses a great threat to their health. Therefore, mothers should actively prevent and promptly treat postpartum vaginitis.

2. What to do about postpartum vaginitis

For the treatment of postpartum vaginitis, the first thing to do is to use antibiotics rationally, and carry out corresponding physical therapy at the same time to achieve the ideal effect. For vaginitis, the principle of complete cure should be followed. For most patients, the symptoms will improve or disappear quickly after local medication treatment, but this does not mean that the inflammation has been cured, but that the pathogens have been temporarily suppressed. Patients should never stop taking the medication, but should follow the doctor's instructions and complete the course of treatment.

3. How to prevent postpartum vaginitis

1. Wear cotton underwear and change it frequently. Keep the towel and basin for cleaning the vulva separate. Washed underwear should be placed in the sun to dry, not in the bathroom.

2. Wear breathable clothes and avoid wearing pantyhose or tight jeans continuously.

3. After defecation, wipe from front to back to avoid bringing Candida albicans from the anus to the vagina.

4. If you used to like sitting by the pool in your swimsuit and chatting, you’ll have to change that behavior in the future. Don’t sit casually in public swimming pools, bathrooms, or even public toilets.

5. Please try to stay cheerful, because psychological reasons can also reduce the body's immunity, allowing Candida to take advantage of the opportunity to invade.
