Pictures of vaginal candidiasis

Vaginal candidiasis or trichomoniasis vaginitis, also known as private vaginal candidiasis (VVC), is a common and multiple vulvovaginal inflammatory disease caused by Trichomonas. Candida albicans is a conditionally pathogenic bacterium. 10% to 20% of non-pregnant women and 30% of pregnant women have this fungus parasitic in the vagina, but the amount of bacteria is small and does not cause symptoms. Let's discuss the detailed description of the photos of fungal vaginitis below.

Vaginitis symptoms will only occur when the body's and vagina's resistance is reduced, especially when some body cells' immunity is low and Candida albicans multiplies.

Causes

Trichomonas is a type of bacteria, and vaginitis is usually caused by Candida albicans among Trichomonas. Trichomonas has a weak resistance to heat and can die after being heated to 60℃ for one hour. But it has strong resistance to dryness, sunlight, ultraviolet light and organic chemical preparations.

Clinical symptoms

The typical symptom of Trichomonas vaginitis is vulvar itching, and the itching symptoms vary from mild to severe, and come and go. When the itching is severe, the patient may feel uneasy and have no appetite. When the inflammation is severe, urination pain and sexual intercourse pain may also occur. Leucorrhea is another clinical symptom of the disease. The secretions are usually thick and appear like tofu dregs or small lumps of curd.

Inspection

Gynecological examination showed thick, milky white discharge resembling leucorrhea; the vaginal mucosa was swollen, and in severe cases, shallow ulcers occurred in the vagina. The extract was placed on a 10% KOH slide and fungi were looked for under a microscope. If there are symptoms and multiple microscopic examinations are negative, the modeling method can be used for modeling.

Confirmation

1. Itching of private parts, and the discharge is milky white, thick, and leucorrhea-like;

2. Swelling of the vaginal mucosa, with shallow ulcers in more severe cases;

3. Look for Candida albicans in female secretions. A small amount of female secretions can be placed on a 10% KOH or saline slide, stirred, and then looked for fungi under a microscope for diagnosis. 10% KOH can dissolve other somatic cell components, and the diagnostic detection rate is 70% to 80%. If there are symptoms and multiple microscopic examinations are negative, a plastic surgery method can be used for plastic surgery diagnosis.
